My goal here is to specifically be able to set the i/o timeout on the 
tcp side, since I just had an ffmpeg rtmp process wait for more data 
indefinitely after a network hickup, even though the connection was long 
dead.

I just discovered that the URLContext has global options, and rw_timeout 
is one of them.
So setting -rw_timeout should have already been possible, I'll try if 
that ends up in the right place.
