Description
Adds retries to certain uses of requests.get (notably, when downloading the data files of figshare records).
Fixes #81
Testing (if applicable)
Ran the code and under normal circumstances, it works as before. Code was observed to retry on error conditions. The number of retries is set to 3. If the number of retries is exceeded, the code will abort as before.
