Description

## What?
Specifically referring to errors about "Event Processor failed to execute - possibly due to non-existing grouping fields".

Implement a mechanism in Graylog to limit retries for errors, ensuring logs missing information do not flood the server log indefinitely. This feature should allow setting a retry limit (e.g., 10 attempts) after which execution halts until the next scheduled time, preventing continuous retries until manual event definition disablement/re-enablement.

## Why?

Customer has been affected as there has been a flood of the messages instead of a limited number.
