Should help with #13153

Launchpad is known to be occasionally flaky and the current wait / rerun amount isn't cutting it. If a retry can wait/try enough to complete it saves more time than rerunning a test.

It also doesn't significantly increase the amount of time to fail, assuming each timeout is a few seconds, and each wait is 5 seconds, we're still only talking about 35 seconds to fail.

If we continue to see more failures, it may be worth considering remove the launchpad tests, while keeping local bzr tests.

assuming each timeout is a few seconds, and each wait is 5 seconds, we're still only talking about 35 seconds to fail.

This is also false. I'm not sure where the timeout is configured, but it seems like the timeout is ~270 seconds... which is pretty bad for a test suite.

Whelp, I guess we can just mark this test not to run as part of the CI if we start seeing regular failures again.
