Tomas Valenta 710fae6fa1 Limit hanging stream timeout (#1197)
<!-- CURSOR_SUMMARY -->
> [!NOTE]
> **Medium Risk**
> Changes request timeout semantics for server-stream calls by adding
`write` and conditional `read` timeouts, which could alter behavior for
long-running/slow streams but is limited to client-side networking
configuration.
> 
> **Overview**
> **Improves timeout handling for server-stream requests in the Python
SDK.** `Client._prepare_server_stream_request` now builds a richer
`httpcore` timeout extension: `request_timeout` applies to `connect`,
`pool`, and `write`, and the separate `timeout` parameter is mapped to a
`read` timeout (to help prevent hanging streams).
> 
> Adds a changeset to publish a patch release documenting the updated
`request_timeout` behavior.

What is E2B?

E2B is an open-source infrastructure that allows you to run AI-generated code in secure isolated sandboxes in the cloud. To start and control sandboxes, use our JavaScript SDK or Python SDK.

Run your first Sandbox

1. Install SDK

pip install e2b-code-interpreter

2. Get your E2B API key

  1. Sign up to E2B here.
  2. Get your API key here.
  3. Set environment variable with your API key
E2B_API_KEY=e2b_***

3. Execute code with code interpreter inside Sandbox

from e2b_code_interpreter import Sandbox

with Sandbox.create() as sandbox:
    sandbox.run_code("x = 1")
    execution = sandbox.run_code("x+=1; x")
    print(execution.text)  # outputs 2

4. Check docs

Visit E2B documentation.

5. E2B cookbook
