[bug] Retry + assert in async scenario does not work

Reproduce the two async scenarios from the issue with CodeceptJS 3.0.5 or 3.0.6, Node.js 14.16.1, and Playwright, comparing retry and no-retry runs. Trace the async scenario retry handling from that reproduction; done means the unexpected assertion remains a test failure after retries and the final output reports one failed test.

What are you trying to achieve?

Assertion like the doc example (but with an unexpected value in the assertion):

const assert = require('assert')

Scenario.only('test page title 1', async ({ I }) => {
  I.amOnPage('https://www.google.com')
  const title = await I.grabTitle()
  assert.strictEqual(title, 'Bad value')
}).retry(2)

Scenario('test page title 2', { retry: 2 }, async ({ I }) => {
  I.amOnPage('https://www.google.com')
  const title = await I.grabTitle()
  assert.strictEqual(title, 'Bad value')
})

What do you get instead?

With retry option, the test does not fail (ok at the end), it's unexpected:

> codeceptjs run --steps "--verbose"

Without the retry, it's good, the test fails as expected:
