Failed locking attempts were immediately retried up to three times
without any delay between the retries. If a lock file is not found while
checking for other locks, with the reworked backend retries there is no
delay between those retries. This is a problem if a backend requires a
few seconds to reflect file deletions in the file listings. To work
around this problem, introduce a short exponentially increasing delay
between the retries. The number of retries is now increased to 4. This
results in delays of 5, 10 and 20 seconds between the retries.
When the context used for a load operation is canceled, then the result
is always an error independent of whether the file could be retrieved
from the backend. Do not false positively trip the circuit breaker in
this case.
The old behavior was problematic when trying to lock a repository. When
`Lock.checkForOtherLocks` listed multiple lock files in parallel and one
of them fails to load, then all other loads were canceled. This
cancelation was remembered by the circuit breaker, such that locking
retries would fail.
