[FFmpeg-devel] [PATCH 4/6] avformat/http: Add support for Retry-After header

[Derek Buitenhuis <derek.buitenhuis@gmail.com>]

429 and 503 codes can, and often do (e.g. all Google Cloud
Storage URLs can), return a Retry-After header with the error,
indicating how long to wait, in seconds, before retrying again.
If it is not respected by, for example, using our default backoff
stratetgy instead, chances of success are very unlikely.

This adds an AVOption to respect that header.
