To align HttpClient with Java behaviour, I suggest that as for HttpClient, we switch this property to 0. Property is by the way not greatly named as a value of 1 means 0 retry. So we will fix the algorithm so that 0 means no retry.

I think this needs more detailed documentation in the changes file. It is an incompatibility.
