Test items don't include retries

[grant-mccarriagher]

Hey folks,

Was testing out the MCP server and noticed that test item responses don't include the retries property, even if the Report Portal API does include retries on the test item. I believe this is an issue in the goRP library that the MCP server uses.

MCP server version: 1.0.1 (Docker, STDIO)
RP version: 5.14.2

Here's a comparison of get_test_item_by_id in the MCP server vs the same API request to /v1/:projectName/item/:itemId

    }
  ],
  "path": "89161236.89162087"
}

You'll notice that the only difference is the lack of the retries property. I think this might be an issue at goRP (and possibly an issue with the Report Portal documentation that was used to generate the server in goRP).

Let me know if any further details are needed, thanks!

Hello @grant-mccarriagher !
Thanks for your investigation.
This is a known issue and already fixed in the develop branch, so it will be released soon together with remote/multi-client support.
