CLIENT PAUSE - don't drop together with other blocked clients (#8302)

When the server state changes and blocked clients are being dropped, the
paused clients should not be dropped, they're safe to keep since unlike
other blocked types, these commands are not half way though processing,
and the commands they sent may get rejected according to the new server
state.
