Consolidate JDK metadata retry handling

[brunoborges]

Description:
JavaBase previously combined automatic @actions/http-client retries with a broad installer-level retry loop, multiplying metadata requests and repeating successful version resolution when downloads failed.

This change introduces one bounded retrying client for metadata requests with exponential backoff, jitter, Retry-After support, and the existing HTTP/network retry classifications. It removes the installer retry loop and private console timer access. Archive transfers continue to use @actions/tool-cache.downloadTool, preserving toolkit streaming, proxy, cleanup, and download retry behavior without wrapping it in another setup-java retry.

The distribution coverage verifies every remote distribution uses the shared client, adds a deterministic JetBrains 429 test, and extends the live E2E matrix to Oracle OpenJDK. The dispatched matrix completed all 368 jobs successfully, including 30 JetBrains scenarios.

Pull request overview

This PR consolidates JDK metadata retry behavior into a single, bounded retrying HTTP client to avoid multiplying requests and repeating version resolution, while keeping archive downloads handled by @actions/tool-cache’s download logic.

Changes:

• Added RetryingHttpClient with exponential backoff + jitter, Retry-After handling, and retry classification for common transient HTTP/network failures.
• Updated JavaBase to use the shared retrying client and removed the installer-level retry loop (including private console timer access).
• Added/updated tests to validate retry behavior (including deterministic 429/Retry-After coverage) and ensured all distributions share the client; expanded E2E matrix to include Oracle OpenJDK.
