Fixes: #418
Per the usage limits docs 429s should be handled by retrying, ideally by following an exponential back-off algorithm.
With this PR, you can provide the max retries & retry strategy you'd like to apply when rate limited.
When no configuration is provided, the library will default to the existing behaviour i.e. throw an error.
This is meant as a replacement for PR #525 that's ready to merge & has a more flexible interface for rate limiting.
