/**
 * Calls `callback` until it doesn't throw an error or throws an error when `maxRetries` is reached.
 * Similar to the `waitUntil` guard from '@augment-vir/assert' but doesn't check the callback's
 * output.
 *
 * @category Function
 * @category Package : @augment-vir/common
 * @example
 *
 * ```ts
 * import {callWithRetries} from '@augment-vir/common';
 *
 * const result = callWithRetries(5, () => {
 *     if (Math.random() < 0.5) {
 *         return 'done';
 *     } else {
 *         throw new Error();
 *     }
 * });
 * ```
