Unlimited retries possible in implementation, but not trough public API

[NyCodeGHG]

If I'm seeing this correctly, it should be possible to have unlimited retries in the implementation, but there seems no way of doing that via the public API, because the Default implementation defaults to 3 retries?

Is that intended or did I miss anything?

Yes, we have not presented a direct method for that. Might you have a requirement for this?

We can use with_max_times to workaround it:

let builder = ConstantBuilder::default().with_max_times(usize::MAX);

thats what i'm using right now, but feels a bit hacky, also that could theoretically overflow.

Maybe a new function like ConstantBuilder::unlimited would be better for this?

Seems not a good idea to me. I plan to add a FnBuilder that accept a function which will return the next delay like the following:

let f = FnBuilder::new(|| Some(Durtion::from_secs(1)));

What do you think?
