When there is an error during the streaming download and unpack for Python interpreter and bin installs, we would previously fail, causing a lot of CI flakes on GitHub Actions. The problem was that the error is not one of the extended IO errors we were previously handling, but a regular reqwest error, nested below layers of errors of other crates processing the stream, including some IO errors. We now handle nested reqwest errors, too. This surfaced another problem: Our manual retry loop couldn't inform the retry middleware that it already performed the limit of retries, and that the middleware should not retry anymore. While too many retries are more a problem for debugging than for the user, this causes confusing error output. To work around this, we disable the retries in the client and handle all retry errors in our loop. Fixes #14171
