Expose jobTimeoutMs field in JobConfigurationQuery #1421

Description

At job creation time I want to set a timeout for the job if it takes too long to run. Too many long running queries eat up the slot reservation and significantly deteriorates query performance. Currently we have to manually cancel the queries in the console. I noticed that there is a jobTimeoutMs field in the JobConfiguration object. This is not exposed by the Python client but is exposed by other Bigquery clients (Golang). Can we add this to the Python client as well?

The alternative would be to have a timer on the client side and manually cancel the request. This feels wasteful considering the feature already exists on the server side and it's just a question of exposing it in the client.
