chore(ci): retry flaky instrumentation-http in platform workflow (#7678)

watson · web-flow · commit 9b4ee01dacfe · 2026-03-05T11:19:20.000+01:00
Add retries (nick-fields/retry, 3 attempts) around the http
instrumentation test steps to work around a flaky bug in Node.js
http code. Inline the job steps instead of the shared action so
only this job is affected. TODO: revert to ./.github/actions/
instrumentations/test once fixed upstream.
