Description

At the moment we retry errors again and again indefinitely. As suggested by [e-mail] we should cap the number of retries (or the time spent retrying).

For this we can include a retrycount in the reconciliiation status,

Also we should distinguish fatal (like config errors) and recoverable errors with a different exception type and those should not be retried.
