Affects: \

WebClient doesn't retain existing exchange strategies while mutating. it seems similar bug was filed here - https://github.com/spring-projects/spring-hateoas/issues/867 and that was corrected but in spring Hateoas version 1.0.0.M1. We can still notice this behaviour in spring-webflux-5.2.2.RELEASE. Not sure why the fix was not ported into web flux package. is it intentional/desired behaviour? Attached screenshot for same(w/o web client mutate)
