transfer: cap retries of "dead connections" to 5
When libcurl retries a connection due to it being "seemingly dead" or by REFUSED_STREAM, it will now only do it up five times before giving up, to avoid never-ending loops. Reported-by: Dima Tisnek Bug: https://curl.haxx.se/mail/lib-2020-03/0044.html Closes #5074
