Review comment:
So we need an audit and log line here just like the generic `Exception`
catch block.
The other thing we need to do is make sure this doesn't break the HA case.
There a failover needs to happen.

> Key: KNOX-2095

> Project: Apache Knox
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Affects Versions: 1.2.0, 1.3.0
> Reporter: James Chen
> Assignee: James Chen
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: easyfix
> Fix For: 1.4.0

>
> When errors occur while accessing the Knox gateway, errors are forcibly
> overridden and represented as 500 errors, rather than whatever errors they
> should be.
> For example, when the timeout value under gateway.httpclient.socketTimeout is
> set to a very low timeout value (E.G. 1 ms) under gateway-site.xml, a socket
> timeout exception is produced by the getHttpClient().execute(
> outboundRequest) call. However, this is caught by the surrounding try-catch
> block and thrown again as an IOException. This results in a generic 500
> error, rather than a 504 error one would normally expect from this sort of
> interaction.
>
> For these sorts of scenarios, I believe it would be prudent to create a dummy
> HttpResponse using a HttpResponseFactory object for the inboundResponse with
> the corresponding error code (E.G. HttpStatus.SC_GATEWAY_TIMEOUT in the event
> of a SocketTimeoutException) and return that instead to trigger the
> appropriate 504 error. I suspect there are other sorts of potential error
> code triggers that get this same IOException treatment that would be better
> off receiving their own error codes.
>
> Judging from the source code, this issue likely affects version 1.3.0, though
> this has not been tested.
