Description
https://github.com/dotnet/sdk/pull/48075 this PR parses out the info about retry from commandline, and instead it should be told by the platform that retry is happening and only react to the messages.
Probably on the assembly start we want to have retry: true, and try: number, when retry is being used.

Research direction
Start with PR #48075 and the current retry handling in dotnet test; trace where command-line retry information is parsed and where platform assembly-start messages are consumed. Done means retry handling relies on the platform messages, including the proposed retry and try values, with tests covering the updated behavior.
