After the initial connection attempt in the activate method, we schedule the attemptConnect method to be called periodically every 60 seconds. This ensures that if the MQTT client becomes disconnected for any reason (e.g., network issues, broker restarts), the system will automatically attempt to re-establish the connection at regular intervals.

Enhanced Lifecycle Management: Modified the component's initialization and shutdown processes. The ScheduledExecutorService, responsible for managing reconnection attempts, is now initialized in the component's constructor and configured in the @activate method. This ensures that the executor is ready for use immediately and adapts to configuration updates.

Graceful Shutdown: Implemented a more graceful shutdown process using ThreadPoolUtils.shutdownAndAwaitTermination in the @deactivate method. This approach ensures that ongoing reconnection attempts are properly completed before the component is deactivated, preventing potential resource leaks.

Configuration Update Handling: Introduced a @Modified method to dynamically handle configuration changes. This method allows the component to adjust its behavior, such as changing the reconnection attempt interval, without needing to be fully deactivated and reactivated.

Dynamic Reconnection Interval: Added a new configuration parameter (reconnectionAttemptInterval) to the Config interface. This parameter allows users to specify the interval between reconnection attempts to the MQTT broker, enhancing the component's adaptability to network conditions or broker availability.
