@aniketbhatnagar It looks like both of our patches replace
`commons.httpclient` with `httpcomponents`. In this PR, I configured Spark
Core to use version 4.3.5 of HttpComponents HttpClient because it seems to be
the latest version.
One question, though: how backwards-compatible is the HttpComponents
version of HttpClient? Do different versions provide different compatibility
guarantees? I found a blog post suggesting that it's not fully compatible:
http://blog.teamextension.com/migrating-from-httpclient-3-1-to-4-0-34.
Are there newer versions of the dependencies that depend on HttpClient
(e.g. jets3t) which use the newer version?
