    We do get the timeout value from the Statement (Ref: 
https://github.com/kkhatua/drill/blob/a008707c7b97ea95700ab0f2eb5182d779a9bcb3/exec/jdbc/src/main/java/org/apache/drill/jdbc/impl/DrillCursor.java#L372
 )
    However, the Statement is referred to by the ResultSet object as well, to 
get a handle of the timer object. During testing, I found that there is a 
possibility that the DrillCursor completes fetching all batches, but a slow 
client would call ResultSet.next() slowly and time out. The ResultSet object 
has no reference to the timer, except via the Statement object.
    There is a bigger problem that this block of code fixes. During iteration, 
we don't want to be able to change the timeout period. Hence, the DrillCursor 
(invoked by the _first_ `ResultSet.next()` call) will be initialized and set 
the timer to start ticking.Thereafter, any attempt to change the timeout can be 
ignored.
