### API Change

- Kube-apiserver: Fixes handling of CRD schemas containing literal null values in enums (#104990, @liggitt) [SIG API Machinery, Apps and Network]

### Bug or Regression

    * Initializes the HTTP client with the necessary configurations and settings.
    * This method sets up the request configurations, authentication schemes,
    * user agent, proxy settings, request headers, cookie store, and connection manager.
    * It also processes form-based authentication schemes and sets up the HTTP client context.
