When switching to the requests library,
open_url
ceased to throw an exception on HTTP errors because requests behaves differently than urllib. This adds an explicitraise_for_status()
call to bring the exceptions back.Also adds a retry handler from urllib3 to implicitly retry on transient HTTP errors. There is a fixed number of 3 retries and the list of status codes that are considered transient is the same as the one curl uses.
Switch the tests for replication to run against a local HTTP test server, so that the test cover the behaviour of request as well.
Fixes #235.
