Summary

Add automatic retry logic to doRequest for HTTP 429 (Too Many Requests) responses
Respect Retry-After header when present, fall back to exponential backoff (1s, 2s, 4s)
Context cancellation is honored during retry waits
Configurable maxRetries (default 3) and baseRetryDelay (default 1s) on Client struct
Non-429 errors are not retried
Add 7 new tests covering all retry scenarios

Closes #132

Test plan

go test ./internal/gitea/ -run TestDoRequest_RateLimit - all pass
go test ./internal/gitea/ -run TestRetryDelay - all pass
go test ./internal/gitea/ - all existing tests still pass
Manual: trigger rate limiting against a real Gitea instance and observe retry behavior in logs

feat: add rate-limit retry with exponential backoff in Gitea API client e6ce6bc6c6

Add automatic retry logic to doRequest for HTTP 429 responses. Uses
Retry-After header when present, otherwise exponential backoff
(1s, 2s, 4s). Respects context cancellation during waits. Defaults
to 3 max retries with 1s base delay. Includes 7 new tests covering
retry success, exhaustion, Retry-After header, context cancellation,
non-429 errors, and backoff calculation.

Closes leeworks-agents/gitea-mobile#132
