Respect the "Retry-After" times requested by Jira

The time Jira sends in the Retry-After header is the minimum time Jira wants us to wait before retrying our request. However, the former implementation used this as a maximum waiting time for the next request. In result, there was a chance that we reached three retries without reaching the time that Jira expected us to wait and our request would fail.

This implementation does also affect the other retry cases, as while previously we jittered our backoff between 0 and the target backoff, we now only jitter between 50% and 100% of the target backoff. However, this should still protect us from thundering herds and safes us from introducing a new minimum backoff variable for the retry-after case.

This solves one of the issues reported in #1805.
