ftp_connect -- Opens up an FTP connection

Returns a FTP stream on success, `FALSE` on error.

The `timeout` parameter specifies the timeout for all subsequent network operations. If omitted, the default value is 90 seconds. The timeout can be changed and queried anytime with ftp_set_option() and ftp_get_option().
