BUG-8515: make sure we retry connection on NotLeaderException

There is a race window when we are establishing connection to the
backend:

When we received the pointer to shard leader, we send a connect
request, but during that time window the leader may move, resulting
in a NotLeaderException response to ConnectClientRequest. Since
we are in reconnection mode, this will result in hard abort of
connection.

Fix this by wrapping NotLeaderException and akka failures in a
TimeoutException -- hence we will retry connecting.
