This augments the existing stop checks that are added at each backward branch, which, while helpful, do not guarantee the snippet thread will notice a stop request in a bounded length of time, because a snippet could be executing some recursive method(s) that have no backward branches (an example is given in the new regression test). This fix closes that loophole.
