v5.2.7: Retry failed mise downloads with backoff and show the HTTP status

When the action can't download mise, the log now shows the HTTP status and host for each failed attempt. Retries wait longer between attempts, so a short GitHub outage is less likely to fail the job.

Fixed

• Download failures now show what went wrong, and brief outages are retried for longer. Before this release, a failed mise download logged only The process '/usr/bin/curl' failed with exit code 22 and retried five times with a fixed 2-second wait. From that message you couldn't tell a rate limit from a missing asset or a server error. Each failed attempt now logs the HTTP status and the host that answered:

  Download attempt 1/6 failed: Could not download github.com/…/mise-v2026.10.21-linux-x64.tar.zst (HTTP 503 from github.com). Retrying in 3.4 seconds.
  

  The wait between attempts doubles from about 2s up to a 30s cap, with random jitter, so the five retries cover roughly a minute. Only transient failures are retried: connection errors and timeouts, and HTTP 408, 429 and 5xx responses. A 404, any other 4xx, or a local file-write error fails at once. The log shows only the host and file name of each URL, never signed query strings or curl/wget stderr. Partial files are deleted before the next attempt. wget now runs with --tries=1, so its own 20-retry default no longer stacks on top of the action's retries. This applies to every download the action makes: the release archive, checksums and the packslip bundle. Checksum and signature verification are unchanged, and there are no new inputs. (#722 by @​jdx, fixes #721)

Changed

• packslip, which the action uses to verify downloaded mise releases, is updated from 1.11.0 to 1.11.2. This version includes upstream hardening of its verifier checks. (#726)
