📄 Description

I changed the reconnect delay from milliseconds to seconds. The builder form label changed to "seconds" and the client now multiplies the reconnect delay by 1000 to convert it to milliseconds. I modified the defaults for debug to be 1 second and for production to be 300 seconds, or 5 minutes. The previous value of 5 seconds created a much too obvious rapidly polling outgoing connection.

Additionally I modified the randomness in the reconnect timeout to always be between 50% and 150% of the configured value, allowing for a better randomly staggered reconnect time that is less likely to show up as a simple recurring pattern. If you use the 5 minute default that I set then the retry time will be between 2.5 minutes and 7.5 minutes.
