sbe_retry_handler refactor

Previously the sbe_retry_handler had logic and wording that
assumed that it was being used to tell if the slave sbe booted or not.
However this code has many more use cases then that. Also there was some
indirect recursion that made the code hard to follow. With this refactor
the code should be easier to follow and the vocabulary used should be more
generic.
