Currently httpexpect.Request has 4 retry policies:

• DontRetry
• RetryTemporaryNetworkErrors
• RetryTemporaryNetworkAndServerErrors
• RetryAllErrors

RetryTemporaryNetworkErrors and RetryTemporaryNetworkAndServerErrors use net.Error.Temporary to identify temporary network errors (see Request.shouldRetry). This method were deprecated in recent go versions:

// An Error represents a network error.
type Error interface {
	error
	Timeout() bool // Is the error a timeout?

	// Deprecated: Temporary errors are not well-defined.
	// Most "temporary" errors are timeouts, and the few exceptions are surprising.
	// Do not use this method.
	Temporary() bool
}

Hence, we should migrate from Temporary to Timeout, but without breaking compatibility.

Steps:

• introduce two new retry policies: RetryTimeoutErrors, RetryTimeoutAndServerErrors
• RetryTimeoutErrors should work like RetryTemporaryNetworkErrors, but it should use net.Error.Timeout
• RetryTimeoutAndServerErrors should work like RetryTemporaryNetworkAndServerErrors, but it should use net.Error.Timeout
• mark RetryTemporaryNetworkErrors and RetryTemporaryNetworkAndServerErrors as deprecated and suggest to use corresponding new policies instead
• update tests to work with new policies; exclude deprecated policies from tests because these tests are huge already

We will remove deprecated policies in v3.
