Bug report

When creating a asyncio transport/protocol pair, one might want to call transport.pause_reading() immediately when protocol.connection_made() is called. This is currently not possible. The call to pause_reading() is ignored, and reading commences nonetheless.

This is problematic, because there is no other place where the transport can be immediately paused, especially when the protocol is created through loop.create_server.

As a remedy, I would suggest guarding

with if not self._paused:. There might be other places where this is needed, for other event loops.
