Added option for timeout while connecting to peripheral #374

Closed GunnarI closed 3 years ago

Added option to pass timeout parameter to the peripheral constructor to be used as timeout for "trying to connect" period. Possible resolution for issue #303

Thanks, I would really like to see this merged... for now I use a local MyPheripheral with this PR approach to get the functionality, which is extremely useful when trying to connect to devices that are (no longer) connectable. Without this PR the default timeout is too long for me.

I also need this change, otherwise I can't use the software as it is hanging too long when the device is not there.

Also approving the pullrequest. It is working for us.

@IanHarvey also a good PR without breaking change if you plan a next release :)

Thank you,
