Slow down on throttling / max-age #378

Description

@lemon24

Slow down based on 429 Retry-After and Cache-Control max-age.

OK, Retry-After support done directly in the updater; bumping the interval should probably be done as part of a plugin (feels somewhat icky to do it in core); also, the plugin may do other HTTP things, like #246.

To rethink if this should be a plugin or a core feature:

  • ideally, we should store statuses and headers for the last X update attempts (easier to do in core, should happen by default)
  • it should be the default and hard to disable by mistake
  • for a hosted version of reader, it should not be possible to users to bypass it (so it can't rely on tags, or alternatively, we don't allow modifying that tag)
