API

`promiseEndeavour(promiseFactory, onFailure) => promiseRetryingFactory`

promiseFactory is a function that returns a promise. onFailure is a function that controls the retry logic.

`onFailure(error, attempt) => boolean | number`

onFailure will be called when the promise returned by promiseFactory rejects. error will be the rejection value, and attempt is a number representing how many times we've attempted so far. If it fails once, the attempt will be 1.

The return value of onFailure controls the retry logic. To stop retrying return false. To retry immediately return true. To retry after a delay, return a number in milliseconds.
