Prior to this commit, asking for a `Void` type using any of the `ClientResponse#bodyTo*` methods would immediately return an empty `Publisher` without consuming the response body. Not doing so can lead to HTTP connection pool inconsistencies and/or memory leaks, since: * a connection that still has a response body being written to it cannot be properly recycled in the connection pool * incoming `DataBuffer` might not be released This commit detects when `Void` types are asked as body types and in those cases does the following: 1. Subscribe to the response body `Publisher` to allow the connection to be returned to the connection pool 2. `cancel()` the body `Publisher` if the response body is not empty; in that case, we choose to close the connection vs. consume the whole response body Those changes imply that `ClientHttpResponse` and other related contracts don't need a `close()` method anymore.
