I get the following error message:
$ time bin/gvm 1.17.4
gvm: error: failed downloading from https://storage.googleapis.com/golang/go1.17.4.linux-amd64.tar.gz: failed to write file to disk: context deadline exceeded (Client.Timeout or context cancellation while reading body)

sys 0m0.625s
I am behind a corporate proxy, which performs some security scanning on all downloads, especially archives. For archives, it will first download the whole thing, scan it and only then pass it to the client. This is done be just sending the client the first few KB and keeping the connection open until the scanning has been completed. Unfortunately, this can take quite some time, especially for big archives with lots of files (like the Go releases) and therefore, the download hits the 3 minute timeout defined in https://github.com/andrewkroh/gvm/blob/main/common/common.go#L39.
In order for me to be able to use GVM, I would need an option to configure this timeout.
