Contains various options for a task's retry strategy. Calls to RetryOptions methods may
be chained to specify multiple options in the one RetryOptions object.
Notes on usage:
The recommended way to instantiate a RetryOptions object is to statically import Builder.* and invoke a static creation method followed by an instance mutator (if needed):
Sets the maximum age from the first attempt to execute a task after which any new task failure
can be permanent. If both taskRetryLimit and taskAgeLimitSeconds are specified, then both
limits must be exceeded before a task can fail permanently.
Sets the number of retries allowed before a task can fail permanently. If both taskRetryLimit
and taskAgeLimitSeconds are specified, then both limits must be exceeded before a task can fail
permanently.
