Review Comment:
   Before this change, the failover test enabled checkpointing and therefore 
inherited Flink 1.20’s default exponential-delay restart policy (1s initial 
backoff, 1.5 multiplier, and 1min maximum backoff). Selecting fixed-delay here 
changes the behavior to retry every 1s indefinitely. During a persistent 
lake/storage failure, this can continuously hit the external system and flood 
logs instead of backing off. Is this fixed retry cadence intentional? If the 
goal is to retain the retry behavior previously exercised by the 
checkpoint-enabled test while enabling restarts without checkpoints, could we 
explicitly select `exponential-delay` instead (whose default attempt count is 
effectively infinite), or otherwise document and explicitly configure the 
fixed-delay policy?
