AFAIU the only difference between the new function and
coio_read_timeout() is that the new function works without 
struct coio* object, but uses coio_wait(), which creates/
destroys this object on demand.

Could you provide a rationale for this? coio_wait has to call 
EPOLL_CTL_ADD/EPOLL_CTL_DEL on every wait, so it tripples the 
number of syscalls per wait. 

On the other hand I realize that it's not super important
for popen IO, but still I don't understand *why* you need this.
