Add retry logic to MetricDataLoader
-----------------------------------

                 Key: CHUKWA-506
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CHUKWA-506
             Project: Chukwa
          Issue Type: Improvement
    Affects Versions: 0.4.0
            Reporter: William Bajzek
            Priority: Minor


When processing data in Chukwa, many steps along the way, when the encounter an 
error condition, will attempt to reprocess the data a few times before giving 
up. This doesn't happen in post processing (at least when using 
MetricDataLoader); for example if there is a SQLException of any kind, it will 
move the data to the "inError" directory at which point it becomes AFAIK a 
manual process to move the data back to be reprocessed, so it would be nice to 
retry a few times in case the exception was transient (database was being 
bounced, or similar). 

I will attach a patch to be reviewed.
