Bump metal3-dev-env pinned commit to e5cb63c6a9dcd0d4544a1ae6855c6769957a8984 which includes metal3-io/metal3-dev-env#1666.

This increases the DNF retry count from 3 to 5 and delay from 10s to 30s for all package installation Ansible tasks in metal3-dev-env. The "Refresh DNF cache" task was the weakest link with only 30s max wait (3 retries x 10s), which proved insufficient during extended EPEL mirror outages, causing recurring CI install failures.

The new values (5 retries x 30s = 150s max wait) are closer to what dev-scripts' own 01_install_requirements.sh already uses (MAX_RETRIES=5 with exponential backoff, up to 225s).

Includes increased DNF retry count and delay for package installation
tasks, improving resilience against transient EPEL mirror failures.

Hi @mabulgu. Thanks for your PR.

I'm waiting for a openshift-metal3 member to verify that this patch is reasonable to test. If it is, they should reply with /ok-to-test on its own line. Until that is done, I will not automatically test new commits in this PR, but the usual testing commands by org members will still work.

Regular contributors should join the org to skip this step.

Once the patch is verified, the new status will be reflected by the ok-to-test label.

I understand the commands that are listed here.
