+/// Polls periodically until a condition is met or a timeout is reached.
+///
+/// The function repeatedly executes the given operation `op` closure and
+/// checks its result using the condition closure `cond`.
+/// If `cond` returns `true`, the function returns successfully with the result of `op`.
+/// Otherwise, it waits for a duration specified by `sleep_delta`
+/// before executing `op` again.
+/// This process continues until either `cond` returns `true` or the timeout,
+/// specified by `timeout_delta`, is reached. If `timeout_delta` is `None`,
