Immediate Dead letter option

[ed-sparkes]

Describe the feature

A way of failing and immediately putting message to configured deadletter queue

Use Case

if in handler code we are able to work out that no amount of retrying will resolve the issue without intervention there is no point wasting the processing retrying the message.

Proposed Solution

some syntactic sugar such as return MessageProcessStatus.ImmediatelyDeadletter();

Other Information

Hello @ed-sparkes,

Thank you for submitting the feature request. The proposed request appears to be a valid one given the use-case.

The implementation approach might need to be adjusted based on the current design and structure of the library. I will review this with the team, and we shall get back to you for further updates.
