Unified Alerting: Set `max_attempts` to 1 by default (#79095)
* Unified Alerting: Set `max_attempts` to 1 by default
The retry logic for unified alerting has been broken as far as v9.4.x, rather than fixing it in one go and causing a headache to our users with rules putting extra load on their datasources - I think a better approach is to simply set 1 as a default and then let our users change it.
I see two cons with this approach:
- Configuration for legacy to unified alerting cannot be ported over automatically, users will have to manually set `max_attempts` to 3 when migrating.
- Users expecting to get any sort of retrying (as with legacy alerting) will not have it out of the box and will have to manually edit the configuration.
