Flaky test band aid, retry

[Lewiscowles1986]

Just noticing after some of the good re-work happening, pipelines still flake, so as well as fixing, which might take a minute, I wanted to share some ideas for working around pipeline failures.

https://github.com/marketplace/actions/retry-step is a github action with a fairly nice set of language around retries and even allows you to set a maximum time for jobs (assumed parent process).

shell loops with capturing of errors can also be used.

good idea on the retry step, as that is what we do now but manually, will get that in when I am reviewing and going through the FFI stuff next week. ty
