fix (reviewed): Webhook retry logic uses incorrect HTTP method on retries

[dotunv]

Summary

Reviewed and verified fix for webhook delivery retries.

Original Bug

When a webhook delivery fails and is retried, the retry incorrectly uses the HTTP method from the previously attempted endpoint instead of the original request method. This causes POST webhooks to be retried as GET requests, resulting in repeated failures.

Review Status

• Root cause identified in
• Fix verified: retry preserves original HTTP method from the stored event
• Regression test added covering method preservation across retries
• Edge cases tested: network timeout, 5xx response, connection refused

Verification

Tested with mock webhook server returning 503 on first attempt. Confirmed retry uses correct POST method on subsequent delivery.
