Since http-rb 4.0, the http-rb gem has supported a better global timeout as `timeout(seconds)`. httprb/http#446 As the [http-rb wiki explains](https://github.com/httprb/http/wiki/Timeouts), using eg `timeout(3)` means that 3 seconds is an upper bound for the entire HTTP call. The old way of doing things, before this PR, setting a faraday `timeout` value of `3` would turn into `HTTP.timeout(connect: 3, write: 3, read: 3)`, which would mean the whole HTTP call could actually take up to **9** seconds: 3 for open, 3 for write, another 3 for read. The new way is better semantics for a single faraday `timeout` option. It's been supported since http-rb 4.0, and this Faraday adapter doesn't support any earlier http-rb. It makes sense to change to use the new better way. The existing functionality is not tested here; and I couldn't figure out any good way to test it. Mocking http-rb raising a timeout error would _not_ test this functionality of passing in timeout confiuration appropriately to http-rb. I spent some time on it, but couldn't figure out any good way to test, sorry. This is not a reduction in test coverage, it already wasn't tested.
