/**
* Allows for custom modification of new bean instances, e.g.
* checking for marker interfaces or wrapping them with proxies.
*
* Application contexts can auto-detect BeanPostProcessor beans in their
* bean definitions and apply them before any other beans get created.
* Plain bean factories allow for programmatic registration of post-processors.
*
*
Typically, post-processors that populate beans via marker interfaces
* or the like will implement postProcessBeforeInitialization, and post-processors
* that wrap beans with proxies will normally implement postProcessAfterInitialization.
