Description

Hi @Jeffail, would you consider to expose restartBackoff options? It's necessary for me to run benthos as a service, which continuously consume new data from MongoDB/MySQL etc.

https://github.com/benthosdev/benthos/blob/8671e6de912d167c6f68c93a36aed05f86bea4b1/internal/impl/pure/input_read_until.go#L164-L168C35

Research direction

Start with internal/impl/pure/input_read_until.go at the linked lines around the restartBackoff handling. Read how the read_until input currently exposes and applies its options, then trace the configuration and tests that cover it. Done means the requested restartBackoff options are exposed so the input can continuously consume new data from sources such as MongoDB or MySQL.
