I think it would be better if both the module and the package were
"java.net.http.client", for two reasons.  Firstly, it is important to
align the package and module name whenever possible; I don't think
there's a compelling reason here (or most anywhere else) not to do so.
Secondly, it is not unreasonable to expect that the future may bring
other HTTP-related APIs that are not necessarily client-specific.

Relatedly, it may be wise to rename "HttpRequest" and "HttpResponse"
to "HttpClientRequest" and "HttpClientResponse", respectively.
