set statement attributes

You can set connection-level attributes via set_attr but not cursor-level settings. Note that I haven't had time for tests here yet, but can put them together if adding this to the project makes sense.

• fix: set timeout before attempting connection timeout
• feat: adding set_attr to cursor

It does seem like a missing piece of the API - thanks. Could you add at least one test for PostgreSQL, MySQL, or SQL Server?

I'm also curious about the impetus for this. Were you looking for a statement timeout?

I really like this idea.

I really appreciate the note in the doc string that only integers are supported right now. That will help a lot.

This could be useful for setting SQL_ATTR_ENABLE_AUTO_IPD statement attribute as well.
