RequestStreamAroundAsync Timeout not documented

The functionality of the timeout value in RequestStreamAroundAsync is not documented. What is it supposed to do?

It’s similar to WaitForChild(name, timeout). The request may complete sooner, but it won’t last more than the timeout period. We could make a PR to mention that.

I’d also appreciate some elaboration on how it behaves with no timeout nor sufficient memory to stream in. We know that it does its best to load the area, and that its success depends on network and memory limitations, but I’m not entirely sure when it returns in that case. I never used it without the timeout.
