ExternalProject: retry downloads only on recoverable errors

Thomas Bernard requested to merge teajay/cmake:shorten_external_project_download_timeout into master

Add support for the INACTIVITY_TIMEOUT option in the ExternalProject and FetchContent modules. The download retries are performed only when a transcient potentailly recoverable network/access error occurs. In other cases, the download is not retried, leading to a shorter failure response.

Fixes: #20992 (closed)
Topic-rename: ExternalProject-retry-only-recoverable
