Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

It is possible to set global and per route read timeout. There are use cases where there is a need to set a read timeout for a specific request.

Describe the solution you'd like
Provide a predicate based mechanism to qualify the criterion and set the read timeout.

Describe alternatives you've considered
Somehow override RestClientProxyExchange and configure the used RestClient with specific timeout.

Additional context
I have tried to implement something here: https://github.com/sandipchitale/scgmvcfn/blob/f960eb1b6f3d73d9b9e31c6078dc29b5152d6c51/src/main/java/sandipchitale/scgmvcfn/ScgmvcfnApplication.java#L88

Research direction

Start by reviewing the requested mechanism and the example in ScgmvcfnApplication.java at line 88. Trace how Spring Cloud Gateway MVC fn currently applies global and per-route read timeouts, then determine where a predicate-based per-request timeout can be configured. Done means a specific request can qualify for its own read timeout without changing the global or route settings.
