Bazel client: retry moving install base directory Do not give up immediately if renaming/moving the install base directory fails, wait and retry instead. This is necessary because on Windows the directory we just created and populated with the extracted embedded binaries may still be scanned by the antivirus, so there are open file handles in it so it cannot be renamed. This new logic ensures the AV has enough time to scan all files, close the handles, letting us successfully rename the directory. Fixes the occasional "install base directory cannot be renamed in place" error messages on Windows.

{Fast, Correct} - Choose two
Bazel is a build tool that builds code quickly and reliably. It is used to build the majority of Google‘s software, and thus it has been designed to handle build problems present in Google’s development environment, including:
A massive, shared code repository, in which all software is built from source. Bazel has been built for speed, using both caching and parallelism to achieve this. Bazel is critical to Google's ability to continue to scale its software development practices as the company grows.
An emphasis on automated testing and releases. Bazel has been built for correctness and reproducibility, meaning that a build performed on a continuous build machine or in a release pipeline will generate bitwise-identical outputs to those generated on a developer's machine.
Language and platform diversity. Bazel's architecture is general enough to support many different programming languages within Google, and can be used to build both client and server software targeting multiple architectures from the same underlying codebase.
