Poetry: Request: Specify a longer timeout, similar to `pip --timeout <seconds>`

Feature Request

For devices with unstable internet connection, poetry can fail when using install or update. This can be solved by exporting PIP_DEFAULT_TIMEOUT. But since in the roadmap specifies that pip will be dropped in the future a command line option for specifying this option could be implemented. The option could be implemented as follows:

poetry install --timeout 120 # 120 seconds of timeout
poetry update --timeout 60 # 60 seconds of timeout

I'd also like to see this. I'm having significant issues trying to use poetry with a private repo (I've followed the documentation and several associated issues), and it's difficult to test variations with the timeout is set too high. I really like the features that poetry provides, but it's a little disappointing that some of the basic features of pip are not available in v1.
