Add missing outcome tag for WebClient metrics

On error cases, the "outcome" tag would be missing from recorded metrics
for the `WebClient`.

This commit fixes this issue and improves the reference documentation by
mentioning the tag values used for error cases, when the client response
is not received (I/O errors, client error, etc).

Fixes gh-17219
