PERF: Add exponential backoff for DistributedMutex

Polling every 0.001s can cause extreme load on the redis instance, especially in scenarios where multiple app instances are waiting on the same lock. This commit introduces an exponential backoff starting from 0.001s and reaching a maximum interval of 1s.

Previously `CHECK_READONLY_ATTEMPTS` was 10, and resulted in a block for 0.01s. Under the new logic, 10 attempts take more than 1s. Therefore CHECK_READONLY_ATTEMPTS is reduced to 5, bringing its blocking time to around 0.031s
