pause/resume are expected to operate synchronously on the channel.
When asking for the channel to pause, the channel must be stopped
before the call returns.

In the case of channel configuration, that should have no effect on
any previously queued transfer - in other words, changing the channel
configuration only has an effect when subsequent transactions are
prepared.
