Nick Mathewson 864c42f4d6 Count HTTP 503 as a download failure.
Because as Teor puts it: "[Resetting on 503] is exactly what we
don't want when relays are busy - imagine clients doing an automatic
reset every time they DoS a relay..."

Fixes bug 20593.

o Minor bugfixes (client directory scheduling):
- Treat "relay too busy to answer request" as a failed request and a
reason to back off on our retry frequency. This is safe now that
exponential backups retry indefinitely, and avoids a bug where we would
reset our download schedule erroneously.
Fixes bug 20593; bugfix on 0.2.9.1-alpha.
