Code Review
This pull request adds a retry mechanism to the SSH connection settings in the Ansible configuration to improve resilience against transient network issues. The reviewer recommended adding a release note for this feature and including a descriptive comment for the new setting to maintain consistency within the configuration file.

Some environments do not have a stable provisioning network and it is common to observe ``` Data could not be sent to remote host "10.144.0.174". Make sure this host can be reached over ssh: ssh: connect to host 10.144.0.174 port 22: No route to host ``` By setting `retries` in `ssh_connection` these outages have not be observed.
