/**
* Caches object instances for a request as {@link ThreadLocal} in the serving thread.
*
* This class is intended to cache objects that have a high instantiation cost, are specific to
* the current request and potentially need to be instantiated multiple times while serving a
* request.
*
*
This is different from the key-value storage in {@code CurrentUser}: {@code CurrentUser}
* offers a key-value storage by providing thread-safe {@code get} and {@code put} methods. Once the
* value is retrieved through {@code get} there is not thread-safety anymore - apart from the
* retrieved object guarantees. Depending on the implementation of {@code CurrentUser}, it might be
* shared between the request serving thread as well as sub- or background treads.
*
*
In comparison to that, this class guarantees thread safety even on non-thread-safe objects as
* its cache is tied to the serving thread only. While allowing to cache non-thread-safe objects, it
* has the downside of not sharing any objects with background threads or executors.
*
*
Lastly, this class offers a cache, that requires callers to also provide a {@code Supplier} in
* case the object is not present in the cache, while {@code CurrentUser} provides a storage where
* just retrieving stored values is a valid operation.
