CM - Combine 'Start' and 'Pause' buttons

On the ‘Run’ page, the ‘Start’ and ‘Pause’ are mutually exclusive - they are never both active at the same time.

They could be combined into a single toggle button, and have the text of the button change to reflect the action it would invoke.

This would also make handling the focus on the Run page easier, since it would not have to change - staying on that button all the time would be the correct behavior.

We did that back in the day. People would twitch and double click the button by accident- many angry emails followed. That’s how we got to the two button solution.
