Fixed Issues

Issue Description

Issue	Description
MULE-19207	Updated the XML Beans dependency to 3.1.0.
MULE-19123	Fixed an issue that caused a CXF proxy response with an empty `SOAP:BODY` to throw an exception when it was read.
MULE-19096	Updated the Guava dependency to 30.1-android.
MULE-19107	Resolved a `NullPointerException` caused by the `http:header` builder.
MULE-19073	Fixed a problem in which an exception in a catch exception strategy did not roll back the transaction.
MULE-19094	Updated the Jetty dependency to 9.4.35.
MULE-19093	Updated the Apache HttpClient (httpclient) dependency to 4.5.13.
MULE-19095	Updated the JUnit dependency to 4.13.1.
MULE-19031	Resolved an issue in which the `target` parameter of HTTP Request Connector did not work properly with flow variables whose names were escaped by single quotes.
MULE-19089	Fixed problem in which the WMQ outbound endpoint with `transacted` set in a request-response context stopped processing with no warning.
MULE-19071	Updated the WSS4J dependency to 1.6.19.
MULE-19039	Added back-support behavior in scenarios requiring a `correlationId` to work as it did until version 3.9.3. In the earlier behavior, the correlation ID remained the same for messages that were split and aggregated within the application’s flows. The newer behavior adds a sequence suffix to the "split" instances of such messages. The new `mule.compoundCorrelationId.disable` property has a default value of `false`. Setting it to `true` disables the newer mechanism (with the sequence suffix) and uses the previous one in which the correlation ID remains the same.
MULE-19042	Resolved an issue in which the Until Successful scope (`until-successful`) did not retry on asynchronous events.
MULE-19020	Fixed problem in which connection errors were not computed in the application error count statistics.
MULE-19018	Resolved a problem in which transformers and response transformers were registered in dynamic endpoints when they should not be registered.

The newer behavior adds a sequence suffix to the "split" instances of such messages. The new mule.compoundCorrelationId.disable property has a default value of false. Setting it to true disables the newer mechanism (with the sequence suffix) and uses the previous one in which the correlation ID remains the same.
