feat: Add lastRetry.message

docs/retries.md

@@ -63,6 +63,7 @@ access to the following variables:
 - `lastRetry.exitCode`: The exit code of the last retry, or "-1" if not available
 - `lastRetry.status`: The phase of the last retry: Error, Failed
 - `lastRetry.duration`: The duration of the last retry, in seconds
+- `lastRetry.message`: The message output from the last retry (available from version 3.5)
 
 If `expression` evaluates to false, the step will not be retried.

 | Variable | Description|

-| `lastRetry.Status` | Status of the last retry |
-| `lastRetry.Duration` | Duration in seconds of the last retry |

 Note: These variables evaluate to a string type. If using advanced expressions, either cast them to int values (`expression: "{{=asInt(lastRetry.exitCode) >= 2}}"`) or compare them to string values (`expression: "{{=lastRetry.exitCode != '2'}}"`).
