Research direction

Start by locating the client3 dependency definition and checking how Armeria 1.26.4 brings Netty transitively. Verify whether Netty 4.1.118.Final can be selected without conflicts, or whether a newer Armeria version is required; done means client3 resolves a non-vulnerable Netty version and its dependency checks pass.
