"(running)" is correct here.  When the "stop" callback returns false, there
should be no running->stopped->running transition visible, exactly because your
callback claimed it didn't want the thread to "stop" (and nothing else wanted
it to stop).

>From the user/frontend's perspective, the thread is still running at this
point.  [The user should get an error if he tries to resume a thread that
is currently "running", irrespective of the thread happening to be presently
suspended due to having hit some internal event (e.g., internal single-step
event stops while handling a "s" command that requires several single-steps).]

Internal events are hidden from the user.  That's why we have running/stopped
independent of executing/not-executing in the thread's internal state.
