Saw this reddit post where someone was struggling to cancel a streamer that was hung.
This PR adds the following:
context.Contextto the Streamer struct which is used for checking for external cancellation via the contextsDone()channel.Newconstructor to allow for additional user configuration of the Streamer.WithContextoptions function allowing for a context to be provided by the caller.I'm not sure if this is the right approach, but wanted to offer it as a possible solution and hopefully help with the reddit post's question.
