Using retry logic for transient failures (Set-DataverseRecord)

[rnwood]

Creates multiple contacts with automatic retry on transient failures. Failed requests will be retried up to 3 times with delays of 500ms, 1000ms, and 2000ms respectively. The -Verbose flag shows retry attempts and wait times.

$records = @(
    @{ firstname = "Alice"; lastname = "Smith" }
    @{ firstname = "Bob"; lastname = "Jones" }
    @{ firstname = "Carol"; lastname = "Williams" }
)

# Retry each failed record up to 3 times with exponential backoff
