Research direction

The issue asks to replace the net.dongliu:requests dependency in the elog client with the Java HTTP client. The payload names no files, so start by searching the repository for the elog client and for uses of the requests library, including the build file that declares it. Read the one existing comment to see whether the approach is settled. Done means the elog client makes its HTTP calls through the Java client, the old dependency is removed, and the existing tests still pass.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

net.dongliu:requests is being used in the elog client. Should probably use the java http client.
