Subject: [PATCH] fix: add retry logic to EncryptID database init for Docker
 networking delays

Docker container networking can take a moment to stabilize even after
depends_on health checks pass. This adds 5 retries with exponential
backoff (2s, 4s, 6s, 8s, 10s) to survive transient CONNECT_TIMEOUT errors.
