The example exposed a non-standard "X-RateLimit-Retry-After" header. The standard HTTP header for 429 responses is "Retry-After", which is also set automatically by TooManyRequestsHttpException, so the example now throws that exception instead of building the header by hand. See https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Reference/Status/429

The "Exposing the Rate Limiter Status" example exposed a non-standard
X-RateLimit-Retry-Afterheader. The standard HTTP header for429 Too Many Requestsresponses isRetry-After:https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Reference/Status/429
Since
TooManyRequestsHttpExceptionalready sets theRetry-Afterheaderfrom its first constructor argument, the example now throws that exception
instead of building the header by hand. This also matches the earlier
"Using the Rate Limiter Service" example, which throws the same exception.
