Yu can find an example on how to shade here:
https://github.com/apache/flink/blob/master/flink-metrics/flink-metrics-datadog/pom.xml.
Shading dependencies in reporters/connectors has become a safety-precaution
form our side.
It is not that unlikely that user-code contains the same dependencies. For
one user-code also includes other reporters, so by the very existence of this
reporter there is a precedent :) Besides that something that pops up from time
to time on the mailing lists is users talking to REST endpoints in their
functions/source/sinks, which may also rely on http-related dependencies.
