Motivation:
- Fix `HttpContentCompressor` errors due to missing optional compressor libraries such as Brotli and Zstd at runtime.
- Improve support for optional encoders by only considering the `CompressionOptions` provided to the constructor and ignoring those for which the encoder is unavailable.
Modification:
The `HttpContentCompressor` constructor now only creates encoder factories for the CompressionOptions passed to the constructor when the encoder is available which must be checked for Brotli and Zstd. In case of Brotli, it is not possible to create BrotliOptions if brotly4j is not available so there's actually nothing to check. In case of Zstd, I had to create class `io.netty.handler.codec.compression.Zstd` similar to `io.netty.handler.codec.compression.Brotli` which is used to check that zstd-jni is availabie at runtime.
The `determineEncoding()` method had to change as well in order to ignore encodings for which there's no `CompressionEncoderFactory` instance.
When the HttpContentCompressor is created using deprecated constructor (ie. with no CompressionOptions), we consider all available encoders.
Result:
Fixes#11581.
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:
Netty lacks client side support for decompressing Brotli compressed response bodies.
Modification:
* Introduce optional dependency to brotli4j by @hyperxpro. It will be up to the user to provide the brotli4j libraries for the target platform in the classpath. brotli4j is currently available for Linux, OSX and Windows, all for x86 only.
* Introduce BrotliDecoder in codec module
* Plug it onto `HttpContentDecompressor` for HTTP/1 and `DelegatingDecompressorFrameListener` for HTTP/2
* Add test in `HttpContentDecoderTest`
* Add `BrotliDecoderTest` that doesn't extend `AbstractDecoderTest` that looks flaky
Result:
Netty now support decompressing Brotli compressed response bodies.
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.
