[tests] Add RetryOnFailure annotation
Yesterday I was looking into ways to automatically retry selective tests,
which are known to be unstable on the CI service. This PR adds a small utility
for this.
```java
public class YourTest {
@Rule
public RetryRule retryRule = new RetryRule();
@Test
@RetryOnFailure(times=1)
public void yourTest() {
// This will be retried 1 time (total runs 2) before failing the
test.
throw new Exception("Failing test");
}
}
```
@tillrohrmann and @rmetzger have worked on build stability lately. Do you
think this is useful? Is there a test for which you would use this? If you
don't think so, close this. I don't think we should add unused "utilities".
