/**
* Provides instances of {@code T}. Typically implemented by an injector. For
* any type {@code T} that can be injected, you can also inject
* {@code Provider}. Compared to injecting {@code T} directly, injecting
* {@code Provider} enables:
*
*
* - retrieving multiple instances.
* - lazy or optional retrieval of an instance.
* - breaking circular dependencies.
* - abstracting scope so you can look up an instance in a smaller scope
* from an instance in a containing scope.
*
*
* For example:
*
*
* class Car {
* @Inject Car(Provider<Seat> seatProvider) {
* Seat driver = seatProvider.get();
* Seat passenger = seatProvider.get();
* ...
* }
* }

/**
* Provides a fully-constructed and injected instance of {@code T}.
*
* @throws RuntimeException if the injector encounters an error while
* providing an instance. For example, if an injectable member on
* {@code T} throws an exception, the injector may wrap the exception
* and throw it to the caller of {@code get()}. Callers should not try
* to handle such exceptions as the behavior may vary across injector
* implementations and even different configurations of the same injector.
