Description

If client creates execution using SignalWithStarts and defines workflow retry policy.
If original execution created fails, the retry does not include the signal thats also sent via SignalWithStart exec creation. It currently only includes the workflow inputs of the initially created exec.

Research direction

Start by tracing how SignalWithStart creates an execution and how retry state is assembled after the original execution fails. Verify the behavior with a workflow that has a retry policy and receives a signal during SignalWithStart; done means the retry receives that signal as well as the original workflow inputs.
