Motivation:
We need to add `--add-exports java.base/sun.security.x509=ALL-UNNAMED` when running the tests for codec-http2 as some of the tests use SelfSignedCertificate.
Modifications:
- Add `--add-exports java.base/sun.security.x509=ALL-UNNAMED` when running the tests for codec-http2
- Ensure we export correct when running with JDK12, 13, 14 and 15 as well
Result:
No more tests failure due not be able to access classes
Motivation:
Currently, Netty only has BrotliDecoder which can decode Brotli encoded data. However, BrotliEncoder is missing which will encode normal data to Brotli encoded data.
Modification:
Added BrotliEncoder and CompressionOption
Result:
Fixes#6899.

Motivation:
When TLSv1.3 is used (or TLS_FALSE_START) together with mTLS the handshake is considered successful before the server actually did verify the key material that was provided by the client. If the verification fails we currently will just close the stream without any extra information which makes it very hard to debug on the client side.
Modifications:
- Propagate SSLExceptions to the active streams
- Add unit test
Result:
Better visibility into why a stream was closed
Motivation:
https in xmlns URIs does not work and will let the maven release plugin fail:
```

Modifications:
Use http for xmlns
Result:
Be able to use maven release plugin
Motivation:
HTTP is a plaintext protocol which means that someone may be able
to eavesdrop the data. To prevent this, HTTPS should be used whenever
possible. However, maintaining using https:// in all URLs may be
difficult. The nohttp tool can help here. The tool scans all the files
in a repository and reports where http:// is used.
Modifications:
- Added nohttp (via checkstyle) into the build process.
- Suppressed findings for the websites
that don't support HTTPS or that are not reachable
Result:
- Prevent using HTTP in the future.
- Encourage users to use HTTPS when they follow the links they found in
the code.
Motivation:
Most of the maven modules do not explicitly declare their
dependencies and rely on transitivity, which is not always correct.
Modifications:
For all maven modules, add all of their dependencies to pom.xml
Result:
All of the (essentially non-transitive) depepdencies of the modules are explicitly declared in pom.xml
Automatic-Module-Name entry provides a stable JDK9 module name, when Netty is used in a modular JDK9 applications. More info: http://blog.joda.org/2017/05/java-se-9-jpms-automatic-modules.html
When Netty migrates to JDK9 in the future, the entry can be replaced by actual module-info descriptor.
Modification:
The POM-s are configured to put the correct module names to the manifest.
Result:
Fixes#7218.
