> Ensure `HttpClient::sendAsync` translates every operational failure to an `IOException` as per specification.
> 
> `tier1-2` passes with the proposed changes.
> 
> **Context:** The parent issue, [JDK-8364733], reports that `HttpClient::sendAsync` leaks exceptions which do not extend from `IOException`, and this violates the method's specification. The [JDK-8367067] (#26876) sub-task improved issues around exceptions thrown by request body publishers – which triggered the first encounter with this problem. This PR (and its associated sub-task) is aimed to end this saga.
