Add support for context handling #339

Open
@Lenart12

Description

Currently the api does not allow passing context instead of timeouts. My suggestion is to refactor long running methods to their *WithContext alternative and change the existing methods to call those with background context. While this is a large request, I think it is really needed with many applications.

Example:

func (a *Adapter) Connect(address Address, params ConnectionParams) (d Device, e error) {
    d, e = a.ConnectWithContext(context.Background(), address, params)
    return
}

func (a *Adapter) ConnectWithContext(ctx context.Context, address Address, params ConnectionParams) (Device, error) {
    // actual implementation
}
