After some experiments, I think I can answer my own question:

* If you're using a callLater to deferred.cancel only, regardless of 
cause of the timout (connection timeout or request timeout), your 
errback will get ConnectingCancelledError.

* If you use connectTimeout and a delayed call to deferred.cancel, and 
connectTimeout set to a lower value than the callback to 
deferred.cancel, you will get a TimeoutError in your errback if the 
connection times out. This allows you to distuingish between connection 
timeouts and request timeouts.
