#closes #585
Add helper for computing the next retry delay using exponential backoff with jitter
Closes #585
Description
This PR introduces a shared utility helper to compute exponential backoff delays with jitter. This prevents repeated simultaneous webhook and alert delivery attempts by randomizing retry timers across distributed tasks.
Summary
Webhook retries and alert delivery retries both utilize exponential backoff, but each previously calculated this delay independently without unified jitter distribution. This shared helper uniformly applies exponential backoff with a randomized jitter, replacing inline independent calculations.
Scope Covered
