Description
In the SunJSSE provider, IOExceptions in application output stream was updated to be wrapped into SSLException so as to close underlying connections automatically.  However, there are compatibility impact reported (https://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/security-dev/2019-December/020956.html).

Fix request (13u) Requesting backport to 13u for parity with 11u, applies cleanly.

No new regression test. Simple update, the HttpComponents community had confirmed the patch.

In the HttpComponents compatibility impact report, the IOException was used to make the decision if re-try the connection when the connection failed. It is not a ideal to use specific exception and JSSE implementation details to switch business flow. However, as applications have used this way, we may want to fix the compatibility issue.
