[Clam-devel] NaiveFlowControl: Missing case

[David García Garzón]

 * Blocked source
     Because not all buffers are emptied it may happen that at the time of 
doing the single execution of a source it is not able to execute because 
output buffer is full. This happens on 'Branch saturation' case but i might 
be possible in other cases where the tokens are not consumed. But the 
solution of this case might be also a solution of the Branch saturation case.
