Ive implemented a `settings` context manager as described in [pull request #25](https://github.com/kennethreitz/requests/pull/25#issuecomment-1039541).
>>> import requests
>>> with requests.settings(timeout=0.5):
... requests.get(http://example.org) # Times out after 0.5 seconds
... requests.get(http://example.org, timeout=10) # Times out after 10 seconds
Settings may also be manipulated separately:
>>> import requests
>>> requests.timeout = 0.5
>>> requests.get(http://example.org) # Times out after 0.5 seconds
