Bug Description

When raft leadership changes, any leader-only connections will be disconnected and will need to reconnect to the new leader. When this happens, the IDL will return a txn status of TRY_AGAIN. The current code tries to do an exponential backoff with sleep() due to an issue where those can be spammed 1000s of times a second. This sleep also prevents reconnecting quickly because idl.run() is not called rapidly and can lead to timeouts.

    Fix TRY_AGAIN handling

    I believe removing wait_for_change back in the day was an error.
    We can't do the exponential backoff ourselves because that will
    also delay reconnecting to the the db, because idl.run() needs to
    be called. Also, do_commit() doesn't ensure that idl.run() is
    called if status is TRY_AGAIN. wait_for_change() will ensure that
    we call idl.run() to reconnect quickly and don't try the txn again
    until we have reconnected and the seqno has changed.

    Revert "Don't spam retries 100s of times a second"
    This reverts commit 6596164f51217cc7fabf302ce14ccc9d9beaff1f.
