Description

I'm not sure if this is intended, but I figured the use of `make-fetch-happen` was to take advantage of a few things, and a major one being retries.

Since GraphQL is really only POST (unless configured for GET, though not in Federation without custom data sources), the retries really never happen.

I think a custom retry implementation can actually fix a lot of startup issues people might have.
