Loki queries for data-heavy namespaces frequently time out, causing chunks to silently return partial results. Add retry logic (default 3 attempts with 1s/2s/4s backoff) to _loki_fetch_chunk, a --loki-retries CLI flag, a server-side verdict filter to reduce data transfer, and a post-fetch warning summary when retries or failures occurred.
