Add configurable timeout and retry for git network operations

Add per-attempt timeout (default 300s) and Kubernetes probe-style retry
configuration for git fetch, lfs-fetch, and ls-remote. New action inputs:
timeout, retry-max-attempts, retry-min-backoff, retry-max-backoff.

Fixes https://github.com/actions/checkout/issues/631
