"""Async retry middleware for MCP client transport.

This module provides an async retry wrapper with exponential backoff and jitter
for transient failures. It documents public interfaces in Google style so
mkdocstrings can render API docs without errors.

Attributes:
DEFAULT_MAX_RETRIES (int): Default maximum number of retry attempts.
