> {{SolrTestCaseJ4.getNextAvailablePort()}} is a problematic method in that the entire premise assumes that since the OS allowed us to bind to a port once, it will allow us to re-bind to that port again at some future point in the text execution -- but that is not garunteed, as soon as getNextAvailablePort() releases the port assigned to {{new ServerSocket(0)}} the OS may allocate that port to some other process.
> We should deprecate & remove this method {{getNextAvailablePort()}} to prevent tests from adopting this bad pattern.
