Retry on "UnknownError: Chrome failed to start: crashed" #8409
Description
Originally reported on Google Code with ID 8409
I have a Linux headless box running Jenkins - Protractor(selenium-webdriver) and from
time to time, let's say 1 of every 50 runs selenium-webdriver reports Chrome crashed
while starting.
It would be nice that the launcher retries launching Chrome to avoid CI false positives.
Stack trace:
```bash
Using the selenium server at http://localhost:4444/wd/hub
