Fixed gh-16756

Closes gh-16859

Update `JavaBeanBinder` so that overloaded setters can be used when
binding. Prior to this commit the setter picked would depend on the
order that the JVM returned the declared methods. We now consistently
prefer using the setter with a parameter type that matches the getter.

Closes gh-16206

Closes gh-16858

Update the auto-configured Jetty `HttpClient` so that a default
`SslContextFactory` is used.

Prior to this commit connecting to https URLs would cause a
`NullPointerException`.

Fixed gh-16810

Closes gh-16857

Update `JavaBeanBinder` so that previously cached beans are compared
using full generic type information. Prior to this commit binding would
fail if a class with the same resolved type, but different generics was
in the cache.

Fixes gh-16821

Closes gh-16856

Update the promote and sync jobs so that only the build-info.json
file is downloaded.
