Add socket-level read timeout parameter

The underlying requests library supports a timeout input parameter. The
other python-*client libraries support passing it in, so while working
on shade, it seemed like a great idea to be able to pass in timeout to
swiftclient too. For reference, there's a change in shade:
I095c1240693abf024bda2315dd77f4400b24a45b that shows interaction with
the other libs, and a tentative patch that would consume this one.
