Vouch Request - singhharsh1708 #3778

Why do you want to contribute?

I use Trigger.dev and want to start contributing to the core platform. I'd like to fix #3726 — maxElapsed timeout boundary bypassed in ExponentialBackoff.execute (packages/core/src/v3/apps/backoff.ts).

The retry loop only enforces maxElapsed against the summed sleep delays in retryAsync, and never against the real wall-clock time execute() already tracks in elapsedMs (callback duration + sleeps). As a result, slow callbacks can run far past the configured maxElapsed budget.

I already have a small, tested fix ready (the loop breaks once elapsedMs >= maxElapsed * 1000), with unit tests covering the wall-clock cutoff, the success path, and the maxRetries path, plus a patch changeset for @trigger.dev/core. I'd love to be vouched so I can open the PR, and to keep contributing afterwards.
