As reported in [CORDA-1609](https://r3-cev.atlassian.net/browse/CORDA-1609),
`CordaRPCClientConfiguration.default` is not accessible from Java since
`default` is a reserved keyword.
As part of the refactor made in #2831, `CordaRPCClientConfiguration` went
from being a data class to an interface with a backing implementation of
type `CordaRPCClientConfigurationImpl`.
This resulted in Java users having to rewrite code that was on the form:
```java
final CordaRPCClient client = new CordaRPCClient(
nodeAddress, CordaRPCClientConfiguration.DEFAULT
);
```
to something like this:
```java
final CordaRPCClient client = new CordaRPCClient(
nodeAddress, CordaRPCClientConfiguration.Companion.default()
);
```
However, this does not work. The user would get a compilation error because
`default` is a reserved keyword in Java.
Since `CordaRPCClientConfiguration` has been made an interface, there is no
easy way of introducing a static final field on the interface from Kotlin.
Consequently, I've changed this back to using a `class` with a static field
named `DEFAULT` instead of the static method `default()`.
It should be noted that `default()` / `DEFAULT` is currently only used
internally to pass in default values in `CordaRPCClient.kt` and
`CordaRPCClientUtils.kt`. That said, it is exposed as part of our API
surface and consequently shouldn't be broken.
The latter means that in the above example, the user would actually not
have to provide the parameter at all:
```java
final CordaRPCClient client = new CordaRPCClient(nodeAddress);
```
As can be seen from the definition of `CordaRPCClient`:
```kotlin
class CordaRPCClient private constructor(...) {
@JvmOverloads
constructor(
hostAndPort: NetworkHostAndPort,
configuration: CordaRPCClientConfiguration = CordaRPCClientConfiguration.DEFAULT
) : this(hostAndPort, configuration, null)
```
