I wanted to keep it separate as the Async HTTP Client release schedule
differs from ours. It wouldn't make sense to release a new version when
nothing changed.

I would recommend getting the source bundle for Async HTTP Client 1.7.6.

Set AsyncHttpClientConfig's requestTimeoutInMs property to -1.

Would also request logging an issue. The logic should be disabling the
timeout for ws connections.
