Fix potential race in 'invalid timeout' tests
It's possible for the call to connect() to succeed on the very first try, in which case the logic for checking for invalid timeout fields is never executed. When this happens, the tests fail because they expect a REDIS_ERR_IO but no such failure has occurred.
Tests aside, this is a potential source of irritating and hard-to-find intermittent bugs.
This patch forces the validation to occur early so that we get predictable behavior whenever an invalid timeout is specified.

predictable behavior whenever an invalid timeout is specified.
Originally implemented by @abedra as part of #306.
In case a write or read times out, we force an error state, because we
can't guarantuee that the next read will get the right data.
Instead we need to reconnect to have a clean-state connection, which is
now easily possible with this method.

This change also makes the test stop hanging for 10 to 30 seconds
waiting for the resolver to timeout. Now the resolver immediately
sees the hostname is bad and returns error without waiting for timeout.
Closes#154
This commit properly sets the error value inside of
redisContextWaitReady when an invalid sec or usec value is provided.
Tests for each case are provided to demonstrate that the issue is
properly fixed and to avoid regression.

This reverts commit 77540aa316. The change
in buffer strategy is too large to put in a minor release. It is put in
a separate branch in the meantime, so it can be refined and released
together with a minor version bump.
This is done by only truncating the read buffer once a full reply has
been read. The buffer is no longer truncated halfway through reading a
reply. In addition: pass offset/length of protocol and content via the
read tasks.
