git-p4: add config to retry p4 commands; retry 3 times by default
P4 commands can fail due to random network issues. P4 users can counter these issues by using a retry flag supported by all p4 commands [1]. Add an integer Git config value `git-p4.retries` to define the number of retries for all p4 invocations. If the config is not defined then set the default retry count to 3.
