Radio streaming reconnect with exponential backoff

[Sasa Stamenkovic]

When streaming radio (e.g. http://91.121.222.81:8416/listen.mp3) and there is a streaming error (tend to happen often with most stations), instead of displaying error popup, try to reconnect. It's a good practice to try several times with exponential backoff.

Without this, playback is stopped until user comes back to compuiter and hits play again, which will work in 99%, but is a drag.

Above mentioned URL didn't work.

Also, if this is an issue, it should be addressed in gstreamer, not rhythmbox.

Please update with more information.
