Thread-safe HTTP transport based on the Apache HTTP Client library.
Implementation is thread-safe, as long as any parameter modification to the Apache HTTP Client is only done at initialization time. For maximum efficiency,
applications should use a single globally-shared instance of the HTTP transport.
Class that wraps an org.apache.hc.core5.http.HttpEntity's content InputStream
along with the ClassicHttpResponse that contains this entity. The main purpose is to be
able to close the response as well as the content input stream when #close() is called,
in order to not break the existing contract with clients using apache v4 that only required them
to close the input stream to clean up all resources.
