Introduce a 'disable-download-timeout' option

Add command line option ('--disable-download-timeout') and config file
option ('DisableDownloadTimeout') to disable defaults for low speed
limit and timeout on downloads. Use this if you have issues downloading
files with proxy and/or security gateway.
