Using DynamicLoopingCall involved a few hacks to make it work properly. This
new BackOffLoopingCall will start an exponential backoff (with a configurable
jitter) when there is a failure. The backoff will continue until the given
function returns True or timeout is about to be exceeded. The function will
run indefinitely until either an exception is raised or timeout is reached.
I plan to merge this into oslo loopingcall and switch the heartbeat to this.
