Research direction

Start with the linked using-context documentation and the Go client's handling of context.WithDeadline. Investigate how query cancellation is propagated and whether ClickHouse continues execution after the client deadline. Done means the supported timeout behavior is established and documented or the required change is clearly scoped.
