feat: add retry request control with delay settings

- Add requestDelaySeconds setting for configuring delay between retry attempts
- Add alwaysApproveResubmit option for automatic retry approval
- Add api_req_retry_delayed message type for delayed retries
- Update UI components to support new retry control settings
