 Currently, the oEmbed code use wp_remote_get() to communicate with the
 oEmbedded service. However, there's no way to filter the arguments that
 get used - it simply uses the system wide defaults.

 Filtering the defaults (E.g. http_request_timeout) seems overkill when you
 know that you only want to change things for something specific like an
 oEmbed call that you know may take longer than 5 seconds (E.g.
 https://github.com/leewillis77/wp-github-oembed/blob/1.2/github-
 api.php#L35)

 The attached patch adds a new filter oembed_remote_get_args which allows
 plugins to override the wp_remote_get args for oembed calls (Including
 discovery)
