 - Fixed per-call response timeout overrides incorrectly changing asynchronous response-body read timeouts.
 - Fixed response timeouts expiring during otherwise valid request-body uploads.
 - Fixed requests with `Expect: 100-continue` waiting indefinitely when a server sends neither an interim nor a final response. The configured response timeout now bounds the handshake wait independently of the upload.
+- Added GraalVM native-image metadata (`reflect-config.json`, `native-image.properties`) so `JdkHttpClientProvider` is discoverable via `ServiceLoader` and its `GlobalJdkAsyncHttpClient` holder initializes at run time under a native image, mirroring the existing support in `azure-core-http-netty`. Previously, an application built with this module as its `HttpClientProvider` under GraalVM native-image could fail at run time with an `IllegalStateException` indicating that the default HttpClient provider could not be found on the classpath.
