pass `BackoffPolicy.noBackoff()`.

* does not set flushInterval
* sets concurrentRequests to 1
* sets backoffPolicy to an exponential backoff with 8 retries and a start delay of 50ms. The total wait time is roughly 5.1 seconds.
When all documents are loaded to the `BulkProcessor` it can be closed by using `awaitClose` or `close` methods:
