Liberty RESTful Web Services client properties are deprecated

Previously with jaxrs-2.0 and jaxrs-2.1, users could specify the SSL configuration property com.ibm.ws.jaxrs.client.ssl.config and proxy configuration property com.ibm.ws.jaxrs.client.proxy.* using the ClientBuilder, the Client, and the WebTarget property method. These properties are deprecated in Jakarta EE9 for the Client and the WebTarget property method.

The ClientBuilder properties of com.ibm.ws.jaxrs.client.receive.timeout and com.ibm.ws.jaxrs.client.connection.timeout are also deprecated in Jakarta EE9. Use the ClientBuilder connectTimeout and readTimeout methods instead.
