RequestLimitExceeded when trying to remove thousands of AMIs #89

I have thousands of AMIs to clean on my AWS account. But because AWS API has some rate limits, I get

botocore.exceptions.ClientError: An error occurred (RequestLimitExceeded) when calling the DeregisterImage operation (reached max retries: 4): Request limit exceeded.

I made a pull request to increase max_attempts for boto3 (default is 4). It uses exponential backoff between API calls when it gets RequestLimitExceeded this way I can remove thousands of AMIs without app exception.
