Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
No.

Describe the solution you'd like
There are ExponentialRetryPolicy and TwoPhaseRetryPolicy as far as I know. I wonder whether it's possible to have a ManualRetryPolicy which enables users to determine when to retry.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Research direction

Start by examining the existing ExponentialRetryPolicy and TwoPhaseRetryPolicy implementations and their related tests. Clarify how users would signal a retry decision and what API behavior a ManualRetryPolicy should provide; done means the behavior and user-facing contract are defined and covered by tests.
