**refactor(executor): simplify Gemini CLI execution and remove internal retry logic**

- Removed nested retry handling for 429 rate limit errors.
- Simplified request/response handling by cleaning redundant retry-related code.
- Eliminated `parseRetryDelay` function and max retry configuration logic.
