The user should be able to change the requests timeout

Since we removed axios and we are using fetch:

By default a fetch() request timeouts at the time setup by the browser. In Chrome, for example, this setting equals 300 seconds. That’s way longer than a user would expect for a simple network request to complete.

It lasted for about 2 min when I tried.

Should we give the possibility to users to define their own timeout when using MeiliSearch? This should then be done during client creation in the following way (or another):

const client = new window.MeiliSearch({
    host: 'http://google.com:81',
    apiKey: 'masterKey',
    timeout: 30000
  })

It is done this way in Algolia:

const index = client.initIndex('indexName');

const requestOptions = {
  // Set the readTimeout to 20 seconds
  timeouts: { read: 20 }
}

index.search('query string', requestOptions)
  .then(({ hits }) => {
    console.log(hits);
  });

We should be able to provide the timeout when creating the client. A bit like the ruby client.

Then, pass the information to the request class. Where you can add the timeout to the fetch options if provided or use the default one if it is not.

If you need more information do not hesitate

I would like to work on this issue.
