[java] Provide default implementations for native HttpClient methods

[manuelsblanco]

User description

This change prevents compilation errors in HttpClient implementations that do not support
native Java HTTP operations by providing default implementations for the newly added methods.

🔗 Related Issues

Fixes #16673

💥 What does this PR do?

This PR makes the newly introduced native HTTP client methods (sendNative and
sendAsyncNative) optional by providing default implementations in the
HttpClient interface.

The default implementations throw UnsupportedOperationException, preserving the
previous behavior for clients that do not support Java 11 native HTTP APIs, while
allowing implementations such as JdkHttpClient to override and provide full
support.

🔧 Implementation Notes

• The methods are implemented as default in the HttpClient interface to avoid
  breaking existing implementations.
• Redundant overrides that only threw UnsupportedOperationException were removed
  from internal and test HTTP client implementations.
• Implementations that support native HTTP operations (e.g. JdkHttpClient) remain
  unchanged and continue to provide concrete behavior.

Alternative approaches considered:

• Making the methods abstract (rejected due to breaking existing implementations).
• Introducing a separate sub-interface for native HTTP support (rejected due to
  added complexity and limited benefit).

💡 Additional Considerations

• Existing behavior is preserved for all current HttpClient implementations.
• No functional changes for users unless they explicitly rely on the new native
  HTTP methods.
• Unit tests continue to validate both supported and unsupported implementations.

PR Code Suggestions ✨

Explore these optional code suggestions:

Category	Suggestion	Impact
Possible issue	Return failed future in async method In the default implementation of sendAsyncNative, return a CompletableFuture.failedFuture instead of throwing UnsupportedOperationException directly. This aligns with the expected behavior of asynchronous methods. java/src/org/openqa/selenium/remote/http/HttpClient.java [50-54] default <T> CompletableFuture<java.net.http.HttpResponse<T>> sendAsyncNative( java.net.http.HttpRequest request, java.net.http.HttpResponse.BodyHandler<T> handler) { - throw new UnsupportedOperationException("sendAsyncNative is not supported by this HttpClient implementation"); + return CompletableFuture.failedFuture( + new UnsupportedOperationException("sendAsyncNative is not supported by this HttpClient implementation")); } Apply / Chat Suggestion importance[1-10]: 8 __ Why: This suggestion corrects a violation of the asynchronous method contract. Throwing an exception directly from an async method is incorrect; it should return a future that completes exceptionally, which this change implements.	Medium
General	Implement synchronous method using async version Implement the default sendNative method by calling the asynchronous sendAsyncNative method and blocking for its result. This provides a synchronous implementation for free to classes that implement the async version. java/src/org/openqa/selenium/remote/http/HttpClient.java [66-71] default <T> java.net.http.HttpResponse<T> sendNative( java.net.http.HttpRequest request, java.net.http.HttpResponse.BodyHandler<T> handler) throws java.io.IOException, InterruptedException { - throw new UnsupportedOperationException("sendNative is not supported by this HttpClient implementation"); + try { + return sendAsyncNative(request, handler).get(); + } catch (java.util.concurrent.ExecutionException e) { + Throwable cause = e.getCause(); + if (cause instanceof java.io.IOException) { + throw (java.io.IOException) cause; + } + if (cause instanceof RuntimeException) { + throw (RuntimeException) cause; + } + if (cause instanceof Error) { + throw (Error) cause; + } + throw new RuntimeException(cause); + } } Apply / Chat Suggestion importance[1-10]: 7 __ Why: This is a valuable design improvement that provides a more useful default implementation for sendNative by leveraging sendAsyncNative, enhancing code reuse and making the interface easier to implement.
