Description

An HTTP Client is available starting from Java 11 (https://openjdk.java.net/groups/net/httpclient/intro.html) wonder if we should base the camel-http component on such client instead of rely on external libraries once we'll make Java 11 the minimum Java version.

Eventually we can create an camel-httpclient component bases on the current library used by camel-http (org.apache.httpcomponents/httpclient)
