ESPLwIPClient setTimeout conflicts with Stream setTimeout

[JAndrassy]

ESPLwIPClient::setTimeout conflicts with Stream::setTimeout

the classes hierarchy is Print <- Steam <- Client <- ESPLwIPClient <- WiFiClient

arduino-esp32/cores/esp32/Stream.h

Line 61 in b580bb2

void setTimeout(unsigned long timeout); // sets maximum milliseconds to wait for stream data, default is 1 second

arduino-esp32/libraries/WiFi/src/WiFiClient.h

Line 36 in b580bb2

virtual int setTimeout(uint32_t seconds) = 0;

That bug has hard consequences and prevents me to control my ESP32 devices over the network since a stream will timeout upon a manual input and
client.setTimeout(60000);
has no effect.
Please categorize it to a high priority.
Besides that, it is not admissible that ESP32 and ESP8266 behave that differently on standard methods.

Hello @JAndrassy, sorry for late reply. We will take a look on this if we can fix this.

Hi @JAndrassy , @rin67630
Can you provide some sketch, so I can test and fix that? :) Thanks

so you should not change the Arduino API (Stream.h). I don't know what for is the other setTimeout but it should be removed or renamed
