Determines whether the operation should be retried and the interval until the next retry.

Parameters:

currentRetryCount - the number of retries for the given operation

lastException - the latest exception explaining why the retry is happening. This exception is guaranteed to be retryable. In the event of a terminal exception occurring, this API will not be called.
