Scott Mitchell 413c7c2cd8 Set readPending to false when ever a read is done
Motivation:
readPending is currently only set to false if data is delivered to the application, however this may result in duplicate events being received from the selector in the event that the socket was closed.

Modifications:
- We should set readPending to false before each read attempt for all
transports besides NIO.
- Based upon the Javadocs it is possible that NIO may have spurious
wakeups [1]. In this case we should be more cautious and only set
readPending to false if data was actually read.

[1] https://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/nio/channels/SelectionKey.html
That a selection key's ready set indicates that its channel is ready for some operation category is a hint, but not a guarantee, that an operation in such a category may be performed by a thread without causing the thread to block.

Result:
Notification from the selector (or simulated events from kqueue/epoll ET) in the event of socket closure.
