Implement flags to control retry delays #83

  1. Implement flags to control retry delays 

    Amend the client with two new flags, "--proxy.retry.initial-wait" and
"--proxy.retry.max-wait", controlling how long to sleep after
encountering a proxy poll failure (i.e. network timeout). An
exponential, randomized backoff algorithm is used to prevent thundering
herds. The initial wait is raised from 50ms to 1s. In practice waiting
less than a second after a failure is rarely useful and prevents the
server from being hammered with up to three requests in the second after
a failure.

Discussed in #82.
