Description

In order to reduce resources used or modify data pipelines, users may want to pause processing temporarily.  Presently, this would require stopping the entire KafkaStreams instance (or instances).  

This work would add the ability to pause and resume topologies.  When the need to pause processing has passed, then users should be able to resume processing.
