/**
* Jersey client connector provider contract.
*
* Connector provider is invoked by Jersey client runtime to provide a client connector
* to be used to send client requests over the wire to server-side resources.
* There can be only one connector provider registered in a single Jersey client instance.
*
* Note that unlike most of the other {@link org.glassfish.jersey.spi.Contract Jersey SPI extension contracts},
* {@code ConnectorProvider} is not a typical runtime extension and as such cannot be registered
* using a configuration {@code register(...)} method. Instead, it must be registered using via
* {@link org.glassfish.jersey.client.JerseyClientBuilder} using it's
* {@link org.glassfish.jersey.client.ClientConfig#connectorProvider(ConnectorProvider)}
* initializer method.

* While the {@link Client#getSslContext() SSL context} or {@link Client#getHostnameVerifier() hostname verifier}
* are shared, other configuration properties may change in each runtime.

* previously create connector instance can be reused.
