Feature Request: UIParticle.Stop() continues particle simulation (similar to ParticleSystem.Stop()) #240

Lovely library, thanks for writing.

I would like functionality for Stop() (perhaps a newly named function named StopEmission()) that continues simulation, but simply stops all particle systems from emitting. Your current implementation, from what I can understand, pauses the simulation and renders the systems as paused.

The use case is a UIParticle system (3 unity ParticleSystems) that I'd like to turn off, but have the existing particles continue to live (smoke and sparks off a fuse).

Calling UIParticle.Stop() freezes the particles, and setting the game object inactive instantly kills the particles.

Without a method like this, I have to manually keep track of the emission rates of all the subsystems and turn them down to 0 (and back up later).

Thank you for the consideration!
