Thomas Bechtold f41e3c220c Retry backend initialization
Since commit 4b87f6f40d, exceptions in the init_host() call (which is
called for every backend) are catched and backends might end up
uninitialized and unusable. This might be okish (but is not good) in a
multi-backend scenario but is definitely wrong in a single backend scenario.
In that case, the manila-share process would successfully start but the
backend would never be usable.
So retry to initialize the driver for every backend in case there was an error
during initialization. That way even a temporary broken backend can be
initialized later without restarting manila-share.
