Publishing on Jet Stream hangs indefinitely if the server is unreachable

[paagamelo2]

Hiya, I've noticed that sometimes, INatsJsContext.PublishAsync hangs indefinitely if the server is down or not reachable, as opposed to timing out after the request timeout expires.

That only happens in case a cancellation token is not provided. When providing a cancellation token, the task gets killed as expected. While that is a good enough workaround for me, I feel like the client's behavior should be consistent in case a cancellation token is not provided, and the caller relies on the request timeout being enforced.

Apologies for the lack of details, I didn't investigate this much admittedly, but I definitely saw this behavior consistently. Is this something you're aware of?

Thanks for reporting this @paagamelo2 yes I can confirm publish (in general) is blocking until connection is reestablished. I have a PR #1001 to fix this. I put it behind an option to keep the existing behavior in tact as no doubt applications would be relying on this. Let me know if you can try #1001 and works as you expect. Make sure to use the new option PublishTimeoutOnDisconnected = true.
