Use the default retry condition instead of never retrying in the discovery plugin causing hot retries upstream and
add a test that verifies retrying works.

Admittedly quite a bit of code, but I'm hoping we can just extend the REST layer mocking here and dry things up against the fixture step-by-step like we did for S3 and the other cloud providers in the repository tests to get rid of all our complicated mocking of actual AWS SDK classes and just mock on the REST layer.

Just using the default retry condition here now. We may want to make the retry interval configurable, if only internally for tests. The current settings make the first retry happen after almost 20s but I didn't want to add that complication here yet.

I left a question.

I also think we should adjust the behaviour of AwsEc2SeedHostsProvider to respect discovery.ec2.node_cache_time even if the last attempt resulted in an exception and/or an empty list.

Can we avoid setting our own retry policy at all and use the SDK default? The SDK makes a more nuanced decision about how much to back off based on the error type. If we really want 10 retries then that can be overridden with setMaxErrorRetry(10) instead?

Right, that's much nicer. Moved to the default and kept retries at 10 for now in d015576 :)

Wanna do that here or in a follow-up?

Could we also check that we retry repeatedly? The first five retries take less than a second.

Yes a follow-up makes more sense.

Follow up to #50550. Cache empty nodes lists (`fetchDynamicNodes` will return an empty list in case of failure)
now that the plugin properly retries requests to AWS EC2 APIs.

Move EC2 discovery tests to using the mock REST API introduced in
#50550 instead of mocking
the AWS SDK classes manually.
Move the trivial remaining AWS SDK mocks to the single test suit that
was using them.
