Fixes #3454 (?)
What is in this Pull Request ?
This Pull Request offers one possible fix to issue #3454 by implementing a simple retry (with a switch called -RetryCount) for trying a failed search call again for x times. No upper limit, but backoff is incremental so it won't bombard the API.
My first implementation used Reflection to figure out what sort of an exception it is to make it possible to fail for some and retry others - but I don't have a good list of which exceptions are transient and which aren't, and some can be either one (like arguably the most usual one, "Microsoft.Office.Server.Search.Query.InternalQueryErrorException") so that differentiation doesn't necessarily make sense anyway... 🙄
I updated the documentation to include the new switch.
