      During implementation and code review of SERVER-133148, we identified an opportunity to clean up this area of the code which has proven bug-prone in the past.

      The core idea is to refactor AsyncResultsMerger's per-remote retry bookkeeping from ad-hoc flags (outstandingRequest + callback handle + retry-strategy internals) into an explicit per-remote lifecycle state machine (e.g. Undispatched -> Dispatched -> ResultsBuffered -> Exhausted), with a HitRetryableError state carrying an explicit retryNotBefore backoff deadline.

      This should improve the code legibility here, and reduce the risk of future latent bugs by doing so.
