[cloud] Retry DHCP aggressively in AWS EC2
The DHCP service in EC2 has been observed to occasionally stop
responding for bursts of several seconds. This can easily result in a
failed boot, since the current cloud boot script will attempt DHCP
only once.
Work around this problem by retrying DHCP in a fairly tight cycle
within the cloud boot script, and falling back to a reboot after
several failed DHCP attempts.
