Support retries on failures

[jugend]

Issues:

Mocha retries option has a few limitations:

• Does not retry if error is thrown in before/after[Each] statements
• Retry only the failed test case, it does not re-run the whole spec
• For test case that depends on other previous test cases to run, retrying just the failed test case will not help

Requirement:

Loopmocha supports parallel execution, should any of the mocha runs failed, re-run the mocha execution up to the number of retries option.

It will come in handy for ECI 2 in PP, considering stage env is often not stable.

@grawk Any thought on this PR? Thanks!

Hi @jugend. I apologize for not looking sooner. I'll set up a local test and verify. If all is well we should be able to merge/publish next week.

I am also trying to get people to move away from grunt and grunt-loop-mocha in favor of nemo-runner. I think nemo-runner will be a lot simpler.

Np @grawk, thanks for following up. Yeah I saw nemo-runner, nice work, it is just too much work to strip out all the customization that we done for loopmocha, will try it out for new project.
