Exchange header constant names with Camel naming convention
2959633a6dd5 is described below

commit 2959633a6dd51a9736a9efaedaa843548fcd2d3e
Author: Andrea Cosentino <[email protected]>
AuthorDate: Fri May 29 09:31:50 2026 +0200

    [backport camel-4.18.x] CAMEL-23629: camel-irc - align Exchange header 
constant names with Camel naming convention
    
    Backport of #23594. Rename the Exchange header string values in IrcConstants
    from the non-Camel-prefixed "irc.*" namespace to the project-wide 
"CamelIrc*"
    PascalCase convention, keeping the Java field names unchanged so symbolic
    references keep working. Part of the CAMEL-23577 header-naming sweep. 
Updates
    the integration tests, component docs and setNamesOnJoin Javadoc, 
regenerates
    the camel-catalog and endpoint DSL artifacts, and adds a 4.18 upgrade-guide
    "potential breaking change" entry.
    
    Closes #23616

+Because the renamed header values now begin with `Camel`, they are filtered by

+— `Camel*` headers are framework-internal and are not propagated over the wire.
+
+Routes that bridge an external transport (HTTP, JMS, ...) into an `irc:`
+producer and let the sender choose the IRC destination via the `irc.sendTo`
+header must therefore carry that value in a non-`Camel`-prefixed application
+header and map it to `IrcConstants.IRC_SEND_TO` in the route between the
+transport `from` and the `irc:` `to`. Allowing untrusted senders to drive
+`IrcConstants.IRC_SEND_TO` without such a mapping step is not the intended use
+of the component.
