Add WAITING state and behavior (#1344)

* Add WAITING state and behavior

* Remove `run_async_timeout` and `timed_out_behavior` arguments
* replace with `WAITING` constant and behavior from states
* never wait for promise to resolve (will hang up entire update queue
* see #1250 for discussion

* Fixing pytest version to 4.2.0
