Return Result when creating DaprHttpServer

Especially when running custom docker setups, the container that
contains the sidecar may not be running exactly when the Rust code
starts running.

To fix this, before we needed to sleep(2s) to avoid a panic in the Rust
program.
With this patch, this can be handled on the user side (e.g. the
connection can be retried multiple times with timeouts in-between).
