Spring Boot升级至3.5.3后出现HttpClientProperties$Factory类未找到错误

将父POM中的Spring Boot版本从3.4.3升级至3.5.3后：

<parent>
    <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
    <artifactId>spring-boot-starter-parent</artifactId>
    <version>3.5.3</version>
</parent>

应用启动失败，错误堆栈信息如下：

查阅Spring Boot 3.5迁移文档后，未找到匹配该依赖问题的升级说明。当前使用的其他依赖版本如下：

<properties>
    <spring.boot.version>3.5.3</spring.boot.version>
    <spring-cloud.version>2024.0.0</spring.cloud.version>
    <spring.cloud.azure.version>5.20.1</spring.cloud.azure.version>
    <spring-cloud.gateway.version>4.2.0</spring.cloud.gateway.version>
    <springdoc-openapi-starter-webmvc-ui.version>2.8.3</springdoc-openapi-starter-webmvc-ui.version>
    <jwks-rsa.version>0.22.1</jwks-rsa.version>
    <java-jwt.version>4.4.0</java-jwt.version>
    <azure.app.config.version>2025.2.0</azure.app.config.version>
</properties>

解决方法：将spring-cloud.version从2024.0.0升级至2025.0.0后，问题已解决，所有测试用例均通过。
