(custom_resources): retry after Rate exceeded

[mattiamatrix]

Describe the bug

In our project, we use AwsCustomResource to run many API calls against Lake Formation (grantPermissions, revokePermissions.)

However, in many cases, it happens that the deployment fails after a Rate exceeded error.

Expected Behavior

It would be nice to have the option to enable an exponential backoff retry

Current Behavior

The deployment fails with no other options.

Reproduction Steps

Steps

new AwsCustomResource(this.scope, id, {
      role: this.customResourceRole,
      onCreate: {
        service: 'LakeFormation',
        action: 'grantPermissions',
        parameters: {
          Principal: { ... },
          Resource: {
            LFTagPolicy: { ... },
          Permissions: permissions,
        },
        physicalResourceId: PhysicalResourceId.of(id),
      },

Yeah it would be great to have this feature. I am making it as p2 and any PR submission would be highly appreciated!

you have to implement retry behavior mechanism to your code. see https://docs.aws.amazon.com/sdkref/latest/guide/feature-retry-behavior.html
