/**
 * Contract for a provider that supports the conversion of a stream to a Java type.
 *
 * A {@code MessageBodyReader} implementation may be annotated with {@link jakarta.ws.rs.Consumes} to restrict the media
 * types for which it will be considered suitable. The {@code MessageBodyReader} pipeline is executed if the matching 
 * resource method declares an entity parameter or uses at least one {@link jakarta.ws.rs.FormParam}.
 * 

 * Providers implementing {@code MessageBodyReader} contract must be either programmatically registered in a JAX-RS
 * runtime or must be annotated with {@link jakarta.ws.rs.ext.Provider @Provider} annotation to be automatically
 * discovered by the JAX-RS runtime during a provider scanning phase.
