[BUG]: Error when using retry plugin with codeowners errors request

What happened?

the @octokit/plugin-retry package is unable to handle calling the Github API endpoint to list CODEOWNERS errors (https://docs.github.com/en/rest/repos/repos?apiVersion=2022-11-28#list-codeowners-errors).

Since the API endpoint by default is expected to return a list of errors, in the case where there are no errors it will return an empty list. However, the retry plugin specifically checks to see if the errors list exists in the response:

response.data.errors &&

The retry plugin will then try to log the first error message. This will throw an error if the list is empty.

Here is the code I am using

import {Octokit} from "@octokit/core";
import {retry} from "@octokit/plugin-retry";

const MyOctokit = Octokit.plugin(retry)
const client = new MyOctokit({
    auth: token,
    baseUrl: url,
});

const getCodeownerIssues = async (owner, repo) => {
    return await client.request("GET /repos/{owner}/{repo}/codeowners/errors", {
        owner,
        repo,
    });
}

When I run this code I get an error message from the octokit/plugin-retry, however when I remove the retry plugin, I get a success response.

See the Relevant log output section for the error message I am getting.
