Same as: https://github.com/aws/aws-xray-sdk-go/issues/289

Research direction

Start by comparing this issue with aws-xray-sdk-go issue 289 and tracing how the Node.js SDK handles requests that end when the client or load balancer times out. Identify the relevant request and X-Ray reporting entry points; done means these client-side timeout requests produce usable X-Ray information about the slow request.
