What does this PR do?
Make the
retryResponseWriter
store headers written during the attempt only write them when the attempt is successful.Fixes #3975
Motivation
The retry middleware was loosing response headers written before the request was actually sent to the backend.
This behaviour is caused by this line.
This is what was happening when sticking a request to a backend for instance (see here).
To fix that, we make the
retryResponseWriter
carry a header map which represent theheaders gathered for the attempt. Then we propagate this header map to the response if only we decide to respond to the client.
