* An injectable helper for request processing, all methods throw an
* {@link IllegalStateException} if called outside the scope of a request

*
* Precondition processing (see the {@code evaluatePreconditions} methods)
* can result in either a {@code null} return value to indicate that
* preconditions have been met and that the request should continue, or
* a non-{@code null} return value to indicate that preconditions were not met. In the
* event that preconditions were not met, the returned {@code ResponseBuilder}
* instance will have an appropriate status and will also include a {@code Vary}
* header if the {@link #selectVariant(List)} method was called prior to to calling
* {@code evaluatePreconditions}. It is the responsibility of the caller
* to check the status and add additional metadata if required. E.g., see
* HTTP/1.1, section 10.3.5
* for com.fitburtails of the headers that are expected to accompany a {@code 304 Not Modified}
* response.
