Stabilise tests that use httpbin.org

We use httpbin.org in a number of tests to verify that HTTP clients are working in a native image. These tests are flaky as httpbin.org can be quite slow to respond. This doesn't appear to be specific to CI as testing locally on the command line shows slow response times and gateway timeouts:

It's now running against a docker-compose service which just echoes the HTTP request back to the caller.
