/**
* {@link ContentProvider} provides a source of request content.
* Implementations should return an {@link Iterator} over the request content.
* If the request content comes from a source that needs to be closed (for
* example, an {@link java.io.InputStream}), then the iterator implementation class
* must implement {@link Closeable} and will be closed when the request is
* completed (either successfully or failed).
* Applications should rely on utility classes such as {@link ByteBufferContentProvider}
* or {@link PathContentProvider}.
* {@link ContentProvider} provides a {@link #getLength() length} of the content
* it represents.
* If the length is positive, it typically overrides any {@code Content-Length}
* header set by applications; if the length is negative, it typically removes
* any {@code Content-Length} header set by applications, resulting in chunked
* content (i.e. {@code Transfer-Encoding: chunked}) being sent to the server.
*
* @deprecated use {@link Request.Content} instead, or {@link #toRequestContent(ContentProvider)}
* to convert ContentProvider to {@link Request.Content}.
