patch 8.0.0312: failure when a channel receives a split json messagev8.0.0312

Problem:    When a json message arrives in pieces, the start is dropped and
            the decoding fails.
Solution:   Do not drop the start when it is still needed. (Kay Zheng)  Add a
            test.  Reset the timeout when something is received.
