Deprecate setConnectTimeout on HttpComponents client factory

Prior to this commit, the `HttpComponentsClientHttpRequestFactory` would
set the connection timeout on the request configuration. This has been
deprecated by the client itself and this value should be set while
creating the client on the connection manager itself.

This commit deprecates this method, as there is no way for the factory
to set this value anymore.

Closes gh-35748
