Allow infinitely long delays in exponential-backoff downloads
It's only safe to remove the failure limit (per 20536) if we are in fact waiting a bit longer each time we try to download. Fixes bug 20534; bugfix on 0.2.9.1-alpha.

+ o Minor bugfixes (directory download scheduling):
+ - Remove the maximum delay on exponential-backoff scheduling.
+ Since we now allow an infinite number of failures (see ticket

+ Fixes bug 20534; bugfix on 0.2.9.1-alpha.
