Subject: [PATCH] fix: add timeout and HEAD method to registry validation

Fixes https://github.com/asyncapi/cli/issues/2027

- Added AbortController with 10 second timeout to prevent indefinite hangs
- Changed from GET to HEAD request for lighter weight validation
- Improved error messages to preserve original error and indicate timeout
