This is a follow-up on #18616 where we introduced retries on the occassional deadlocks when rendered task fields have been deleted by parallel threads (this is not a real deadlock, it's because MySQL locks too many things when queries are executed and will deadlock when one of those queries wait too much).

Adding retry - while not perfect - should allow to handle the problem and significantly decrease the likelihood of such deadlocks.

We can probably think about different approach for rendered fields, but for now retrying is - I think - acceptable short-term fix.

Fixes: #32294
Fixes: #29687
