Jersey 3.1.6 not closing request on Jetty earlyEOF

[jansupol]

I do not believe the bug is in Jersey. The InputStream has a strong contract, and the contract says

@throws IOException if an I/O error occurs.

Early EOF sounds exactly like an I/O error. So this is Jetty that does not follow the contract during HttpInput#read.

We could wrap each IO operation into a try-catch, but that's just crazy - if one method can break the contract, any method can do it, and we would need to wrap all the methods into a try-catch, every single InputStream and OutputStream method used in all the places within the project.

ok, closing

@jansupol Note, InputStream implementation can throw far far more than IOException.

It can throw any IllegalArgumentException, OutOfMemoryException, NullPointerException, IndexOutOfBandException, and countless more. (check the implementation of InputStream.java in the openjdk source, and you'll find them easily. Also note that InputStream.java uses Objects.java in many places which increases the number of RuntimeExceptions you can get)

And then there's the implementations of the InputStream class (it's abstract ya know) that can throw all manner of RuntimeException as well.
