v0.8.0

[madflojo]

This release of Tarmac fixes many little things but comes with three new features that can be very useful.

New Features

• Retries for Init Functions

When configured, Init functions that fail can be automatically retried with a configurable interval (with an exponential increase between retries) and max attempts.

• Run Mode

Previously, once started, Tarmac would just run forever, but with Run Mode, you can now specify job mode, which will run any Init functions defined and then exit on completion. This can be used to create jobs via an external job scheduler.

• Maintenance Mode

A new configuration, Maintenance Mode, is created. When turned on, maintenance mode will cause readiness checks to fail. This, along with Consul for dynamic configuration, will allow users to mark running instances as not ready to help coordinate maintenance activities.
