 * Component provider interface to allow custom management of 3rd party

 * 
 * An implementation (a component-provider) identifies itself by placing a provider-configuration
 * file (if not already present), {@code org.glassfish.jersey.server.spi.ComponentProvider}
 * in the resource directory META-INF/services, and adding the fully
 * qualified service-provider-class of the implementation in the file.
 *
 * Jersey will not even try to inject component provider instances with Jersey artifacts.
 * The SPI providers should be designed so that no dependency injection is needed at the bind time phase.
