ANN RabbitMQ HOP 3.6.0 GA is released

[Arnaud Cogoluègnes]

On behalf of the RabbitMQ team I'm happy to announce that RabbitMQ HOP
3.6.0 GA is available.

HOP [1] is a RabbitMQ HTTP API client for Java, Groovy, and other JVM languages.

This minor release contains new features and dependency upgrades. The
blocking IO client can now work without a dependency on Apache
HTTPComponents. All users are encouraged to use this release. See the
changelog [2] for more details.

Thanks to Kuba Marchwicki for his contribution on this release.

Changes:
* Make HTTP layer pluggable on blocking IO client
* Add support for JDK HTTP facilities in synchronous client
* Add support for OkHttp in synchronous client
* Bump dependencies
