feat: enable request timeout (#2013)
Courtesy @cdpierse.
Adds a test to PR #1529 in accordance with feedback.
Description from original PR:
In python the default behaviour of `requests.get` without a `timeout`
being set is to hang indefinitely. We have a production use case where
the desired behaviour would be to raise a timeout error rather than have
the application just hang.
This PR adds a new optional keyword parameter `request_timeout` to
`partition` which is passed to `file_and_type_from_url` in the case
where we are fetching from a URL. This is then passed to `requests.get`
