P2 Badge Honor the 60-second Retry-After boundary

When the server returns Retry-After: 60 or Retry-After-Ms: 60000, this condition rejects the value and falls back to the default exponential backoff, which can be well under 60 seconds. That means rate-limit responses that ask clients to wait exactly at the documented cap are retried too early instead of respecting the cap boundary.

Useful? React with 👍 / 👎.

const maxRetries = options.maxRetries ?? this.maxRetries;
timeoutMillis = this.calculateDefaultRetryTimeoutMillis(retriesRemaining, maxRetries);
