Bot-based backport to release-25.05, triggered by a label in #454527.

  • Before merging, ensure that this backport is acceptable for the release.
    • Even as a non-committer, if you find that it is not acceptable, leave a comment.

We should never try to ping maintainers through package aliases, this
can only lead to errors. One example case is, where an attribute is a
throw alias, but then re-introduced in a PR. This would trigger the
throw. By disabling aliases, we can fallback gracefully.

(cherry picked from commit 6a26c66)
We have seen API errors in the prepare scripts frequently the last
couple of days. A quick fix should be to retry these requests.

(cherry picked from commit 8edb1fc)
