Hi,

This patch adds 2 options to http:
- reconnect_on_status - a list of http status codes that should be retried. the list can contain explicit status codes or the strings 4xx/5xx.
- reconnect_on_err - reconnects on arbitrary errors during connect, e.g. ECONNRESET/ETIMEDOUT.

The retry employs the same exponential backoff logic as the existing reconnect/reconnect_at_eof flags.

Thanks!
