Unexpected dependency on httpclient-cache

See original GitHub issue

Description

Using the spring-boot-starter httpclient-cache seems to be a mandatory dependency, despite no caching is enabled.

Expected Behavior

If no caching is configured, httpclient-cache should not be a mandatory depdendency.

Actual Behavior

In DefaultRiptideRegistrar the class HttpCacheStorage is always loaded, failing if httpclient-cache is not on the classpath.

Possible Fix

Only try to load the class if dependency is available.

Steps to Reproduce

Add the spring-boot-starter to your app
Configure a client (without caching)
See java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/http/client/cache/HttpCacheStorage

Your Environment

Running version 3.0.0-RC.2.

What would be the preferred way?

I’d like to have it as a real optional dependency.
