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

[JBustin]

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"

  OK  | 0 passed   // 2s

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