Use OkHttp5, while alpha it is production quality, but new API are not stable.
But critically it includes support for a simplified form of Happy Eyeballs, avoiding issues on IPv6 networks.

Looks like there are new releases on the 5.0 branch again (when the PR was submitted, it had almost been a year since a release), and they put the same note about 'stable except for new APIs' in the docs.
I don't see any reason to not accept this PR if it is rebased/updated/building is fixed.
