Order waiter could use exponential backoff to avoid exceeding max number of tries #843

Ideally, order.wait should "just work" and users shouldn't have to tune the delay or the retry limit. One tried and true way to do this is to have exponential backoff. For example, we want to check often early in case the order is quickly finished. But once we've discovered that it's still running at 5 minutes, it's less useful to check back in a second, it might easily go to 10 minutes.
