/**
 * An install hook is used to do some pre and post work during a package
 * install. the hooks need to have at least one class that implements this
 * interface. the class is identified by the normal "Main-Class" manifest
 * property and needs to be instantiatable. The instantiated hook class is
 * used for the entire life-cycle of the installation process until the
 * {@link InstallContext.Phase#END} phase.
 *
 * The hook jars need to be placed in the "META-INF/vault/hooks" directory
 * and are executed in alphabetical sequence for each installation phase.
 * A hook can throw a {@link PackageException} to abort the current phase,
 * but this has currently only an effect in the
 * {@link InstallContext.Phase#PREPARE} and {@link InstallContext.Phase#INSTALLED}
 * phase. If a hook fails, the current phase is aborted and all hooks 
 * (also the failing one) are called again with the respective "fail" phase.
