What does this PR do?
This PR changes the way to create the http client in the forward auth middleware.
Before this modification, the http client was created for each request. When it was done without configuring tls, it was not a big problem, because we reused the
http.DefaultTransportbut when tls was activated, thehttp.Transportwas created in each request, and that automatically creates a new connection to the forward auth server, and since we have not configured an expiration time on the idle connection on these transports, we have kept the connections open forever.Motivation
