Descrizione

## Describe the WORKFLOW SDK feature
There are multiple gotchas in the workflow activity retry policies as described below:
```
ACTIVITY_RETRY_POLICY = RetryPolicy(
first_retry_interval=timedelta(seconds=1),

# max_number_of_attempts is the total attempt count, not the retry count
max_number_of_attempts=5,
backoff_coefficient=3,

# Set max_retry_interval else there won't be any retries
max_retry_interval=timedelta(seconds=10),

# DON'T set retry_timeout. If the timeout is hit, the entire workflow fails and the
# final activity isn't executed.
)
```

https://github.com/dapr/python-sdk/blob/main/ext/dapr-ext-workflow/dapr/ext/workflow/retry_policy.py#L26
go-sdk ref https://github.com/dapr/durabletask-go/blob/main/workflow/workflow.go#L147

acceptance criteria:
- [ ] update the field values to sensible defaults if not provided
- [ ] max_number_of_attempts can remain as is, or become deprecated (still supported) and a new field of max_attempts added that will eventuallyyyyy replace this field
- [ ] all field docs strings updated to be clearer on what they do
- [ ] ensure that retries still apply if max_retry_interval is set
- [ ] update retry_timeout to indicate that if this fails then the workflow will fail

## Release Note
