WIP: Obey HTTP status codes from upstream.

[gastonfournier]

Previously we have treated any status code as equal. This PR changes that to allow 429 and 50x status codes to incrementally increase the interval between each time we call. And then gradually decrease once it starts succeeding.

This is a port of https://github.com/Unleash/unleash-client-java/pull/221 into the Python SDK
