    Support exponential backoff policy via reconnect.backoff.max

    This PR is an alternate / simplified approach to alternate backoff policies 
than KIP-53 and KAFKA-3496.
    
    Summary:
    
    * add `reconnect.backoff.max` common client configuration parameter
    * if `reconnect.backoff.max` > `reconnect.backoff.ms`, apply an exponential 
backoff policy
    * select actual backoff per node via uniform random distribution to smooth 
cluster reconnects
