net/http: panic early in do when Client is nil
Callers who invoke `*http.Client.Do` with a nil *Client will now panic at the top of c.Do, instead of panicking when `deadline` attempts to read `c.Timeout`. Errors inside of net/http can be difficult to track down because the caller is often invoking the standard library code via an SDK. This can mean that there are many places to check when code panics, and raises the importance of being clear about error messages. If nil receiver calls panic during the `deadline()` call, callers may confuse the error with a more common timeout or deadline misconfiguration, which may lead a caller who passed a nil receiver (the author, for example) down the wrong rabbit hole, or cause them to suspect their timeout/deadline logic. It is less common to configure client.Jar, so the probability of detecting the actual problem, given the underlying error cause, is higher. Fixes #53521.
