Description
I have a POST request similar to:
```
superagent.post(url)
.set('Content-Type', 'application/json')
.set('Accept', 'application/json')
.set('Authorization', `Bearer ${accessToken}`)
.query(query)
.send(body)
.then(() => {
//...
})
.catch((error) => {
console.log('response', error.response)
console.log('status', error.status)
console.log('error', error)
//...
})
```
* the request is done on a AWS API Gateway endpoint which is closing the call with a timeout error after 29 sec
* the server response (in Chrome DevTools / Network) contains the 504 status code:

* next logs (from the call above) are printed to the console:

Why there is no `response` or `status` attribute on the error as in [documentation](https://visionmedia.github.io/superagent/#request-basics)?

Research direction
Start with the POST request and catch handler shown in the issue, then read the linked Request Basics documentation for the expected error fields. Reproduce the 504 from an AWS API Gateway endpoint timing out after 29 seconds and compare the browser Network response with the caught error; done means the missing status and response details are explained or corrected.
