RFR: 8087112: HTTP API and HTTP/1.1 implementation

[Michael McMahon]

Hi,

I'm looking for reviewers for the http client implementation.
This is just the common API layer and the http/1.1 implementation.

The webrev is at http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~michaelm/8087112/01/

Below is a description of the API classes and the relationship with
their implementation classes.

Thanks
Michael

Implementation classes showing calling relationship. Classes
below have synchronous and asynchronous variants for sending/receiving

HttpRequestImpl - overall implementation of HTTP
   ||
   \/
MultiExchange - manages multiple request/response exchanges that
   ||            occur as a result of errors or filters (only used 
internally)
   \/
Exchange - manages one request response interaction, possibly including
   ||       intermediate 100 Continue response.
   ||
   \/
ExchangeImpl - separates request sending, response receiving. Class is
   ||           abstract with different implementations for Http/1 and 
Http/2
   \/
Http1Exchange - implementation for HTTP/1. Manages TCP connection pools
  ||        |    HttpConnection (and its subtypes). Interacts with NIO 
selector
  ||        |    in HttpClientImpl

FilterFactory - factory for filters
HeaderFilter - internal API for filters (not exposed externally)
AuthenticationFilter - implements HTTP Basic auth
RedirectionFilter - implements automatic redirection of 3XX responses
CookieFilter - implements CookieManager interface
