By using CURLOPT_TIMEOUT we can only set the transfer timeout, which doesn't

I believe this is wrong.
CURLOPT_TIMEOUT sets the maximum time allowed for the entire operation to use,
no matter what state the transfer is in and how long it waits in what queues.
Technically, it means that the timeout value is counted from the TIMER_STARTOP
time-stamp which is set in the INIT state, before the transfer gets queued up
in the PENDING state waiting for a connection.
