Fixes issues with the Present() method of Route53 provider:

- InvalidTXTRDATA error when creating TXT record (closes #94)
- Present() should poll and wait until the status of the record change becomes INSYNC (thanks @oov)

Adds a retry/timeout utility function to dns_challenge.go that may be used in other places
