Logging retry attempts before retry is cumbersome

[JensRantil]

Usecase: This is what I'd like to log:

Retrying yet another time because we failed last time...

What I could do is use a RetryListener and log as soon as an attempt failed. However, I would need access to my StopStrategy to know whether a retry will actually be executed.

Proposed solution: Have two methods on a RetryListener:

• RetryListener#preAttempt(Attempt previousAttempt). Called only if an attempt is to be made.
• RetryListener#postAttempt(Attempt attempt). Basically the same as #onRetry.

...or can I do this easy some other way?
