A timeout stream is triggered by a timer, the Handler will be call when the timer is fired, it can be once or several times depending on the nature of the timer related to this stream. The ReadStream.endHandler(Handler) will be called after the timer handler has been called. 

Pausing the timer inhibits the timer shots until the stream is resumed. Setting a null handler callback cancels
the timer.
