Description

The Solr connector patches SolrJ by replacing some SolrJ classes with modified versions. These need to be reviewed in the following ways:

(1) Necessity. Many of the underlying reasons for the modified classes have likely been resolved in SolrJ.
(2) HttpClient 4.3 deprecation warnings. Since we're using SolrJ 4.7, we should be able to take whatever was done there to remove the deprecation warnings and port that to our modified classes, if the modified classes are still needed.
