[tor-commits] [stem/master] Resume Synchronous when async methods are called

    Resume Synchronous when async methods are called
    
    When our Synchronous class was stopped all further invocations of an async
    method raised a RuntimeError. For most classes (sockets, threads, etc) this is
    proper, but it made working with these objects within synchronous contexts
    error prone.
    
    For example, our Controller's async connect() method resumes our instance, but
    was uncallable due to this behavior. Stopping should be the last action callers
    take, and failing to so so is inconsequential (it simply orphans a daemon
    thread) so erring toward our object always being callable.
