Wrapper script for multiple attempts at downloading inputs
Until now, downloading was treated similar to any other operation in the Makefile: if it crashes, the pipeline would crash. But network errors aren't like processing errors: attempting to download a second time will probably not crash (network relays are very complex and not reproducible and packages get lost all the time)! This is usually not felt in downloading one or two files, but when downloading many thousands of files, it will happen every once and a while and its a real waste of time until you check to just press enter again! With this commit we have the `reproduce/src/bash/download-multi-try.sh' script in the pipeline which will repeat the downoad several times (with incrasing time intervals) before crashing and thus fix the problem.
