Customizing h1_client e.g. ClientConfig

[markuskobler]

Following on from #53 being merged what would be the most ergonomic way of supporting a customizable rustls::ClientConfig

I'm looking todo something similar to: async-tls/example

async fn connector_for_ca_file(cafile: &Path) -> io::Result<TlsConnector> {
    let mut config = ClientConfig::new();
    let file = async_std::fs::read(cafile).await?;
    let mut pem = Cursor::new(file);
    config
        .root_store
        .add_pem_file(&mut pem)
        .map_err(|_| io::Error::new(io::ErrorKind::InvalidInput, "invalid cert"))?;
    Ok(TlsConnector::from(Arc::new(config)))
}

Making this a generic issue for how we should support config without necessitating client overrides.

Is there any news on this? We'd like to set timeouts to the client instance but currently it is not possible.

WIP draft PR up for the API: #84

Docs need to be updated though, I'm hoping to get 6.4.1 out this week with that fix - #87
