This is a **feature request**
## Problem
It can happen that `lightPush.send` fail due to not having enough quality peers or peers in general.
## Proposed Solutions
Enable following API:
```ts
node.lightPush.send(encoder, message, { autoRetry: true }); // retries right after peers are available with default timeout of 500ms
node.lightPush.send(encoder, message, { autoRetry: { timeout: 1000 } ); // changes timeout to 1s
```
Default values:
- `autoRetry` - `false`;
- if `autoRetry` is `true` -> `{ timeout: 500, retries: 3 }`;
- in other cases should be merged with provided values;
This feature should be **disabled by default** as in the worst case scenario it can take some time potentially blocking consumer's app without clear reason.
`timeout` is to cap execution by `await` time
`retries` is to cap execution by amount of tries to `.send` message to peers
