tool_operate: override the numeric locale and set "C" by force
Makes curl always use dot as decimal separator for options,
independently of what the locale says. Makes scripts and command lines
portable.

Updated docs accordingly.

Maximum time in seconds that you allow curl's connection to take. This only
limits the connection phase, so if curl connects within the given period it
will continue - if not it will exit. Since version 7.32.0, this option
accepts decimal values.
The decimal value needs to provided using a dot (.) as decimal separator - not
the local version even if it might be using another separator.
