How to solve "E405: Remote package tasks should have a retry" in Ansible?

E405 v4.0.0 Remote package tasks should have a retry Package
operations are unreliable as they require network communication and
the availability of remote servers. To mitigate the potential
problems, retries should be used via register: my_result and until:
my_result | success

This shows up when running ansible-lint as the following error:

[405] Remote package tasks should have a retry
plays/sample.yml:31
Task/Handler: Install list of packages

Given the sample code:

- name: Install list of packages
  apt:
    name: [jq, vim, curl, unzip, dnsutils]
    state: present

How to solve this?

ansible-lint warning 405 can be quite irritating as in certain cases, i.e. when running locally retrying is very unlikely to make any difference. Actually resolving it is normally simply a case of adding the following:

register: task_result
until: task_result is success
retries: 10
delay: 2

When this is added to task Ansible will retry ten times with a delay of two seconds between each retry until the returncode is 0.
