This is a small extension to Google's Guava library to allow for the creation of configurable retrying strategies for an arbitrary function call, such as something that talks to a remote service with flaky uptime.

Support creating Retryer instance using a spec string #61
This library is awesome. One small thing will improve is even further. The way guava cache can be created using a spec string, it would be awesome if I can create a retryer using a spec.
Advantages:
In prod deployments, I just need to configure 1 config property which can tweak the retryer to any extent. Currently I would need to have different configs properties for different strategies. If we can come up with some sort of DSL, it would be possible. Please suggest a format I will try to raise a PR.
