Closes #6492
Adds functionality for partly working around https://github.com/realm/realm-java-private/issues/259
Before this PR, the
PermissionManager
held on to any error reported, even intermittent network errors. This caused it to stop working once such an error was encountered.With this PR, all errors known to be temporary are just ignored, since the end user cannot do anything besides retrying closing/opening the PermissionManager again. Internally we are already retrying sending data which is much more efficient, so no reason to put that burden on the end user.
With this change, only non-recoverable errors should be reported to end users.
