Determine why `reactorNettyAttributes()` in `WebClientIntegrationTests` is flaky

[sbrannen]

Overview

The reactorNettyAttributes() test method fails intermittently as follows.

org.opentest4j.AssertionFailedError: 	
expected: null	
 but was: {"org.springframework.web.reactive.function.client.ClientRequest.LOG_ID"="2a2cdba0", "org.springframework.web.reactive.function.client.WebClient.uriTemplate"="http://localhost:45573/greeting"}	
at org.springframework.web.reactive.function.client.WebClientIntegrationTests.reactorNettyAttributes(WebClientIntegrationTests.java:1344)

This occurs on the CI server as well as locally.

In the interim I have @Disabled that test method.

Hi @sbrannen , I'd like to work on this using the doFinally operator to ensure synchronous cleanup of channel attributes and eliminate the test flakiness. This approach follows Spring's own reactive patterns used in AbstractView. Could you assign this to me?
