Requirement: connection.stop.listeners

A stop method call must not return until delivery of messages has paused. This means a client can rely on the fact that none of its message listeners will be called and all threads of control waiting for receive to return will not return with a message until the connection is restarted. If MessageListeners are running when stop is invoked, stop must wait until all of them have returned before it may return. While these MessageListeners are completing, they must have the full services of the connection available to them. TODO - test behaviour of sending messages while a listener is active, using a different session (i.e, not from the listener - undefined?) TODO - add test where a thread stops a connection and another starts it as the stop is in progress.
