Upgrade httpclient to 5.x
It seems that new fixes and enhancements are no longer added to httpclient 4.x so it may be time to adopt 5.x in this project as well.
An example of the need for this is support of 308 redirects, which has only been added to 5.0.x https://github.com/apache/httpcomponents-client/commit/2b6f7e5/
Are the artifacts available somewhere? Maven is only showing 4.x.
https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.apache.httpcomponents/httpclient
Edit: Nevermind, found them at a new namespace: https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.apache.httpcomponents.client5
Will probably be a bit of work to upgrade, since a bunch of imports will have changed.
I don’t know why the major version was included in the name (perhaps to facilitate the coexistence of 4.x and 5.x?), but here it is:
https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.apache.httpcomponents.client5/httpclient5/5.0.3

It is also recommended to update due to vulnerabilities https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2020-13956
I started in on this at one point, but there were deprecations, primarily around HttpEntity, that I never finished resolving. A pull request would be very welcome here.
