 * a long time to complete, in some cases operations may take tens of seconds
 * or even 30 minutes to complete.
 *
 * The Cloud C++ client libraries models these long running operations
 * as a `google::cloud::future<StatusOr<T>>`, where `T` represents the final
 * result of the operation. In the background, the library polls the service
 * until the operation completes (or fails) and then satisfies the future.
 *
 * This class defines the interface for policies that control the behavior of
 * this polling loop.
