/** Set an retry function with a unique name. Empty name means no cancelling possible.
*
* This will call f. If f returns RetryResult::RETRY f is called again after initial_wait_time ms.
* f should return RetryResult::DONE if no repeat is required. The initial wait time will be increased
* by backoff_increase_factor for each iteration. Default is doubling the time between iterations
* Can be cancelled via cancel_retry().
* This will call the retry function f on the next scheduler loop. f should return RetryResult::DONE if
* it is successful and no repeat is required. Otherwise, returning RetryResult::RETRY will call f
* again in the future.
*
* The first retry of f happens after `initial_wait_time` milliseconds. The delay between retries is
* increased by multipling by `backoff_increase_factor` each time. If no backoff_increase_factor is
* supplied (default = 1.0), the wait time will stay constant.
*
* This retry function can also be cancelled by name via cancel_retry().
*
* IMPORTANT: Do not rely on this having correct timing. This is only called from
* loop() and therefore can be significantly delayed.
*
* REMARK: It is an error to supply a negative or zero `backoff_increase_factor`, and 1.0 will be used instead.
*
* REMARK: The interval between retries is stored into a `uint32_t`, so this doesn't behave correctly
* if `initial_wait_time * (backoff_increase_factor ** (max_attempts - 2))` overflows.
*
* @param name The identifier for this retry function.
* @param initial_wait_time The time in ms before f is called again
* @param max_attempts The maximum number of retries
* @param max_attempts The maximum number of executions
* @param f The function (or lambda) that should be called
* @param backoff_increase_factor time between retries is increased by this factor on every retry
* @param backoff_increase_factor time between retries is multiplied by this factor on every retry after the first
* @see cancel_retry()
