What these changes does?

Allows to pass None as a timeout value to disable timeout logic.

In some cases there is needed to disable timeout logic but keep it in convenient code structure without ugly if-branching like this:

if delay:
    with aiohttp.Timeout(delay):
        async with session.get(url) as response:
            pass  # ...
else:
    async with session.get(url) as response:
        pass  # ...

Now it is able to use the same code for both numerical and None timeout values:

for delay in [None, 0, 0.1, 1]:
    with aiohttp.Timeout(delay):
        async with session.get(url) as response:
            pass  # ...

This behaviour is similar to asyncio.wait_for(fut, timeout, *, loop=None) coroutine, which takes None as a timeout value to block until the future completes.

How to test your changes?

There is a test in test_timeout.py: test_timeout_disable.
