Hi! Thanks for the patch!
I hope I was supposed to review this. Could you please add the
reviewers into CC/To for next patches?
See 5 comments below.

1. Is it possible to add the commit title after the hash in quotes and
parentheses? Like this:
(see commit 58da206c33197 ("net.box: add { timeout = } option to requests"))
It helps to quickly understand what was the commit about without
copy-pasting the hash for `git show`.

2. May I ask you please to push the patch onto a branch and attach the
issue and branch links after `---` in the first/cover email? For next
patches and for this one too. It simplifies the review; makes your patch
pass CI before the review (or not pass); and simplifies patch push in the
end.

3. The "feature" is still documented:
https://www.tarantool.io/en/doc/latest/reference/reference_lua/net_box/#conn-timeout
You need to add a docbot request to the commit message for the
documentation team to remove all the mentionings of the old API.
For the syntax you can look at
https://github.com/tarantool/docbot#docbot---tarantool-documentation-pipeline-bot.
For examples: grep by `TarantoolBot` in git log.

4. Wouldn't it be hard, please, to reference the issue in the end
of the text using `(gh-####)` format? See other changelogs for examples.

5. compat_warning_said can be deleted now.
In the future you can find such remnants using luacheck, which was
integrated into our CI and can be run locally. For that you need
to install Tarantool into any folder, install luacheck rock, and
then you can do something like this:
$ ./.rocks/bin/luacheck --codes --config .luacheckrc src/box/lua/net_box.lua
Checking src/box/lua/net_box.lua 1 warning
src/box/lua/net_box.lua:1286:7: (W211) unused variable compat_warning_said
