/**
* Instancio Service Provider Interface for providing custom:
*
*
* - generator mappings via {@link #getGeneratorProvider()}
* - subtype mappings via {@link #getTypeResolver()}
* - class instantiation logic via {@link #getTypeInstantiator()}
* - setter resolution via {@link #getSetterMethodResolver()}
*
*
* All of the above are {@code default} methods that return {@code null}.
* Implementations of this class can override one or more methods as needed.
* Instancio will invoke each of the above methods only once, therefore,
* these methods may contain initialisation logic.
*
*
This class uses the {@link ServiceLoader} mechanism. Therefore,
* implementations must be registered by placing a file named
* {@code org.instancio.spi.InstancioServiceProvider} under
* {@code /META-INF/services}. The file must contain the fully-qualified name
* of the implementing class.
*
*
Note: only {@link InstancioServiceProvider} (and not the interfaces
* defined within it) can be registered via the {@code ServiceLoader}.
