pauseReading

Tells the sender of a realTime stream that the player has stopped reading because it is paused (#441), and says whether the source has any notion of that: true when it has and is now paused, false when it has none, in which case nothing was sent and the source reads on.

An RTSP camera ends a session it has not heard from within its timeout, usually 60 seconds, and a paused player reads nothing. So while paused the engine calls this again about every second, and the source sends whatever keeps the session alive when it is due: KiteFFmpeg sends RTSP's PAUSE once and then the keepalive, GET_PARAMETER or OPTIONS, at half the session timeout. resumeReading asks the sender to play on.

The engine calls it on the demux lane, between two reads, and reads nothing until resumeReading succeeds. Defaulted to false, so an existing source keeps compiling and keeps reading through a pause as it always did.
