Title: RKRequest Timeout

I've implemented the patch for RKRequest timeouts that was outlined on the [Google group](http://groups.google.com/group/restkit/browse_thread/thread/8672eba8b1901f5d/6c10a53d927955d1) by Blake and I'd like to get this pull request started to make sure I'm on the right track with it.

I'm a Ruby developer that has been dabbling in iOS development for the past couple years and finally had the opportunity to build an application and have loved everything about RestKit. It seems others involved in the RestKit project appreciate Ruby, too :)

The testing side of me is dying to get some tests implemented for this, but I'm at a bit of a loss as to where to start. I've got the test suite running and everything passes (before and after my patch ;). I have a couple ideas of how I might tackle it, but I'd love a shove in the right direction.
