+/**
+ * Creates and returns a helper for running delayed tasks following an exponential backoff curve
+ * between attempts.
+ *
+ * Each delay is made up of a "base" delay which follows the exponential backoff curve, and a
+ * +/- 50% "jitter" that is calculated and added to the base delay. This prevents clients from
+ * accidentally synchronizing their delays causing spikes of load to the backend.
+ *
+ * @param dispatchQueue The dispatch queue to run tasks on.
+ * @param initialDelay The initial delay (used as the base delay on the first retry attempt).
+ * Note that jitter will still be applied, so the actual delay could be as little as
+ * 0.5*initialDelay.
+ * @param backoffFactor The multiplier to use to determine the extended base delay after each
+ * attempt.
+ * @param maxDelay The maximum base delay after which no further backoff is performed. Note that
+ * jitter will still be applied, so the actual delay could be as much as 1.5*maxDelay.
