➜ New System Properties to Configure the TLS Signature Schemes
Two new System Properties are added to customize the TLS signature schemes in JDK. jdk.tls.client.SignatureSchemes is added for TLS client side, and jdk.tls.server.SignatureSchemes for server side.
Each System Property contains a comma-separated list of supported signature scheme names, which specifying the signature schemes that could be used for the TLS connections.
The names are described in the "Signature Schemes" section of the Java Security Standard Algorithm Names Specification.

➜ Apache Santuario Library Updated to Version 2.1.4
The Apache Santuario library has been upgraded to version 2.1.4. As a result, a new system property com.sun.org.apache.xml.internal.security.parser.pool-size has been introduced.
This new system property sets the pool size of the internal DocumentBuilder cache used when processing XML Signatures. The function is equivalent to the org.apache.xml.security.parser.pool-size system property used in Apache Santuario and has the same default value of 20.

➜ Better Listing of Arrays
The preferred way to copy a collection is to use a "copy constructor." For example, to copy a collection into a new ArrayList, one would write new ArrayList<>(collection). In certain circumstances, an additional, temporary copy of the collection's contents might be made in order to improve robustness. If the collection being copied is exceptionally large, then the application should be (aware of/monitor) the significant resources required involved in making the copy.

➜ Default SSLEngine Should Create in Server Role
In JDK 11 and later, javax.net.ssl.SSLEngine by default used client mode when handshaking. As a result, the set of default enabled protocols may differ to what is expected. SSLEngine would usually be used in server mode. From this JDK release onwards, SSLEngine will default to server mode. The javax.net.ssl.SSLEngine.setUseClientMode(boolean mode) method may be used to configure the mode.
