[exporter/prometheusremotewrite] fix/sanitize exponential retry defau…

…lts (open-telemetry#30286)

**Description:** 

This PR sanitizes the default retry settings by using default
constructor and setting the single `InitialInterval`, instead of user
initializing entire structure manually.

The current default settings do not become exponential due to being
upper bound at 200ms by `MaxInterval: 200 * time.Millisecond,`. This
effectively caps the wait intervals between requests at a very low
interval, thus becomes more of a linear retry than exponential. And due
to the distributed nature of the Otel Collector, coupled with each
metric export being handled by go-routine, this caused a massive churn
of requests when remote endpoint is unavailable.
