That is a correct observation that if `PortUnreachableException` is thrown 
during first query or between retry attempts we could loose a part of needed 
timeout per-server, and it could be hidden by previous timeout exceptions. The 
lost timeout cannot be compensated for such cases. What we can do, is to 
improve the exception reporting:
 - if we have only one server - we set `PortUnreachableException` as a main 
exception. Even if the recoverable exceptions, like `TimeoutException`, were 
observed before.
 - if we have multiple servers we add `PortUnreachableException` as suppressed 
exception to an exception observed first.
 
Pushed the exception reporting change as 
5177a8856f678bd5a721a0c058ec3dfe79addfa0.
