Subject: [PATCH 2/7] Azure helper: Ensure Azure http handler sleeps between
 retries (#842)

RH-Author: Eduardo Otubo <otubo@redhat.com>
RH-MergeRequest: 45: Add support for userdata on Azure from IMDS
RH-Commit: [2/7] e8f8bb658b629a8444bd2ba19f109952acf33311
RH-Bugzilla: 2023940

Ensure that the Azure helper's http handler sleeps a fixed duration
between retry failure attempts. The http handler will sleep a fixed
duration between failed attempts regardless of whether the attempt
failed due to (1) request timing out or (2) instant failure (no
timeout).

Due to certain platform issues, the http request to the Azure endpoint
may instantly fail without reaching the http timeout duration. Without
sleeping a fixed duration in between retry attempts, the http handler
will loop through the max retry attempts quickly. This causes the
communication between cloud-init and the Azure platform to be less
resilient due to the short total duration if there is no sleep in
between retries.
