Description
Fix missing retries on transient errors in kubernetes operations.

Updates #2650

Implementation
This is a relatively small and self contained change, as reported by Customer S, they see a higher than expected failure rate in their CI of upgrade testing. We got a stack trace from them (excerpt in #2650) that show's we're not retrying on "connection refused" errors.
I didn't do any manual testing on this one, as it would likely be a bit tricky to produce the right network error at the correct time. That also would only cover the specific error, where it looks like lots of temporary failures are missing in the logic. Worst case is we retry a few times for something we shouldn't.
The "connect refused" error as present in the stack, should be covered by the existing utils.IsTransientClusterError, and I threw in various kubernetes transient errors as good measure. https://github.com/gravitational/gravity/blob/master/lib/utils/error.go#L106-L132
Testing done
Only looking for robotest results. See justification above.
