Description
In JDK 21, an enhanced syntax for various timeout properties was released through JDK-8179502.  This included a new system property, `com.sun.security.ocsp.readtimeout`, which allows users to control the timeout while reading OCSP responses after a successful TCP connection has been established.

This changes the default posture of this property to be the value of the `com.sun.security.ocsp.timeout` system property from its original default of 15 seconds.  If the `com.sun.security.ocsp.timeout` system property is also not set, then its default 15 second timeout is propagated to the default for `com.sun.security.ocsp.readtimeout`.
Comments
[~mullan] I agree, I should have linked the original RN. I'll do that now. As to the 15 second default, the original RN indicates that 15 seconds is the default for the various properties already so I think we're covered there.

The release note looks good.
