Deadlock Retry plugin

Deadlock retry for MySQL 5.0.x

Original gem detects following errors and retry

• "Deadlock found when trying to get lock",
• "Lock wait timeout exceeded",
• "deadlock detected",

Update this gem to easily avoid an unfixed bug of MySQL 5.0.x:

• "Duplicate entry * for key 1 *" - Error 1062 (High concurrency problems http://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=61519)
• "MySQL server has gone away" - Error 2006 (Due to lock problems)
