Our style guide actually says that this opening brace should be on the
same line as the 'if'. We only declare that opening braces for functions
are on the following line.

So, until now, I've refused any patches which add configuration options
for the downloader. Consider this to be me giving in.
I sort of wonder how much longer it'll be until we start getting patches
for other downloader knobs. To that end, I'd really like it if we could
namespace this in the handle by creating a sub-struct within the handle for
downloader-specific things (this would also make it easier to replace in
the future). This would also allow us to easily contain the ifdef'ery
needed to shrink down the handle struct when there's no libcurl support
in alpm.

This will do things like treat "10m" as 10 seconds and not provide any
user feedback. I think you want to separate this logic out into it's own
function and do the full error handling. You can reuse this for both
LowSpeedLimit and LowSpeedTime.

We'll have one less string to translate here if you use %s in place of
the key name and instead pass it as an argument.
