…e tests Replace the nick-invision/retry GitHub Action wrapper around e2e test targets with ginkgo's built-in --flake-attempts=3 flag. This retries only the individual specs that fail rather than re-running the entire suite, saving GitHub API token quota and CI time. Changes: - Makefile: add --flake-attempts=3 to all ginkgo e2e targets (e2e-pat, e2e-gh-token, e2e-gitlab-token, e2e-gitlab, e2e-azure-devops-token) - main.yml: remove retry wrapper from PAT e2e step - integration.yml: remove retry wrapper from GITHUB_TOKEN e2e step - gitlab.yml: remove retry wrapper from both GitLab e2e steps Non-e2e retry wrappers (generate-mocks, generate-docs, publishimage) are intentionally left unchanged as they don't use ginkgo.

Summary
Replace the
nick-invision/retryGitHub Action with ginkgo's built-in--flake-attempts=3for all e2e test targets. This retries only the individual specs that fail rather than re-running the entire test suite.Motivation
As described in #2897, when an e2e test fails, the retry action re-runs
make e2e-*from scratch — all 54+ specs. With--flake-attempts=3, ginkgo retries only the failed spec up to 3 times in-process, saving:Changes
