This should limit one of the biggest reasons for slow prompts, mitigating apjanke#6. Set `$AGNOSTER_PROMPT_TIMEOUT` to limit the amount of time the git command can run. This requires GNU timeout, so it is disabled by default. I tried to make this apply globally for all prompts. However, GNU `timeout` only works for full processes, not for shell functions. My attempt at a [zsh implementation](https://gist.github.com/sbliven/0da4eba5380ba514accb4118d481fbc9) failed due to job control limitations on non-interactive shells.
