Give the webhook handler a timeout (closes #38)

The webhook handler's client had no timeout, and slog calls the handler
inside the log call, so a server that accepted the connection and never
answered stopped that log call for good, and every later one. A request
still running after 5 seconds now fails with a timeout error. The
handler also reads the answer to the end before closing it, so the
connection is reused for the next record.

A new test points the handler at a server that never answers and checks
that Handle returns a timeout error. The README states the timeout.
