This patch introduces `Timeout`. This new type allows setting a timeout both using a duration and an instant. Given this overlap with `Deadline`, `Deadline` is deprecated. In addition to supporting future timeouts, the `Timeout` combinator is able to provide timeout functionality to streams. It does this by applying a duration based timeout to each item being yielded. The main reason for introducing `Timeout` is that a deadline approach does not work with streams. Since `Timeout` needed to be introduced anyway, keeping `Deadline` around does not make sense.
