src/Tweeper.php: add a retry mechanism for cURL sessions

cannot be retrieved. This makes Tweeper hang for a very long time which
can be annoying for users.

Setting a shorter timeout and a retry mechanism usually works around the
problem allowing the resource to be retrieved eventually.

Implement such a mechanism by adding curlExec() method and while at it
move non-curl related messages outside of getUrlContents() and
getUrlInfo() to give the user a better understanding of what actually
failed when even the retry mechanism was not able to retrieve the

Tweeper shows usernames by default in items created from multi-user

This is because  the main use case is to aggregate multiple feeds in the

messages is coming from can be useful.

However sometimes tweeper can be used to track one single feed and in
this case having always the same username repeated over and over is
unnecessary.

default.
