This closes #23 and adds a new constructor to Exponential delays that allows specifying the factor of multiplication instead of using the base as the factor. In particular for retrying API responses it is desirable to use a lesser factor as otherwise the time to wait increases far too quickly to be useable.
I added two allows for deprecation because Rust recently deprecated some method (ref: rust-lang/rust#66919). Please advise if you would like to see this handled differently. I suppose for early rust version support they might still be required, so I did not want to remove them completely.
