The AuthenticationFilter did not respect the default retry limit of 3 retries in case of invalid credentials supplied.
This PR helps to resolve the bug and tests it with default and updated retry limit set via `jdk.httpclient.auth.retrylimit=1`. The test is green with tiers 1, 2, 3 and the test is stable. ------------- Commit messages: - add comment to indicate system default value - apply review feedback - fix for the http client default retry limit Changes: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/25490/files Webrev: https://webrevs.openjdk.org/?repo=jdk&pr=25490&range=00 Issue: https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8340182 Stats: 118 lines in 2 files changed: 116 ins; 0 del; 2 mod Patch: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/25490.diff Fetch: git fetch https://git.openjdk.org/jdk.git pull/25490/head:pull/25490 PR: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/25490
