remove retry logic for fuerte connections

[jsteemann]

Scope & Purpose

• Fix connection retry attempts for cluster-internal TLS connections that ran
  into the 15 seconds timeout during the connection establishing attempt.
  In this case, the low-level socket was repurposed, but not reset properly.
  This could leave the connection in an improper state and lead to callbacks
  for some requests to not being called as expected.
  The fix is to remove the retry logic, and instead prolong the connection
  timeout to a multiple of the previous timeout value.

We will abandon this solution without retries in favor of a solution with retries (#20877 and the likes).
