Enhance add_files with retry logic and CDC support

- Add tenacity-based retry mechanism for CommitFailedException
- Implement change data capture (CDC) for concurrent commits
- Enhanced duplicate file detection and handling
- Add comprehensive unit tests for enhanced functionality
- Fix B904 lint error in exception handling
- Fix MyPy errors with proper type annotations
