Subject: [PATCH] fix: add timeout, HEAD method, and meaningful errors to
 registryValidation

- Add 5-second AbortController timeout to prevent indefinite hangs
- Use HEAD instead of GET for lighter-weight validation
- Include original error message in thrown error for better debugging
- Handle AbortError specifically with clear timeout message

Fixes asyncapi/cli#2027
