Summary
Add retries to the entropy-tester script
Rationale
We use entropy-tester as a synthetic test for Entropy. If the script fails, it's a good signal that something is wrong. However, this can be a bit noisy, as currently a single failed callback raises an alarm, even though it is likely due to a transient chain issue we can't do anything about.
Adding retries to the tester allows us to reduce this noise by only alerting if we fail to receive multiple callbacks in a row. After this change, a critical alert will be fired if 3 callbacks fail back to back, giving us better confidence that something is actually wrong.
How has this been tested?
