/**
 * Request bean annotation.
 *
 * <p>
 * Identifies an interface to use to interact with HTTP parts of an HTTP request through a bean.
 *
 * <p>
 * Can be used in the following locations:
 * <ul>
 * 	<li>Arguments and argument-types of server-side <ja>@RestOp</ja>-annotated methods.
 * 	<li>Arguments and argument-types of client-side <ja>@RemoteResource</ja>-annotated interfaces.
 * </ul>
 *
 * <h5 class='topic'>Arguments and argument-types of server-side @RestOp-annotated methods</h5>
 * <p>
 * Annotation that can be applied to a parameter of a <ja>@RestOp</ja>-annotated method to identify it as an interface for retrieving HTTP parts through a bean interface.
 *
 * <h5 class='section'>Example:</h5>
 * <p class='bjava'>
 * 	<ja>@RestGet</ja>(<js>"/mypath/{p1}/{p2}/*"</js>)
 * 	<jk>public void</jk> myMethod(<ja>@Request</ja> MyRequest <jv>requestBean</jv>) {...}
 *
 * 	<jk>public interface</jk> MyRequest {
 *
 * 		<ja>@Path</ja> <jc>// Path variable name inferred from getter.</jc>
 * 		String getP1();
 *
 * 		<ja>@Path</ja>(<js>"p2"</js>)
 * 		String getX();
 *
 * 		<ja>@Path</ja>(<js>"/*"</js>)
 * 		String getRemainder();
 *
 * 		<ja>@Query</ja>
 * 		String getQ1();
 *
 *		<jc>// Schema-based query parameter:  Pipe-delimited lists of comma-delimited lists of integers.</jc>
 * 		<ja>@Query</ja>(
 * 			collectionFormat=<js>"pipes"</js>
 * 			items=<ja>@Items</ja>(
 * 				items=<ja>@SubItems</ja>(
 * 					collectionFormat=<js>"csv"</js>
 * 					type=<js>"integer"</js>
 * 				)
 * 			)
 * 		)
 * 		<jk>int</jk>[][] getQ3();
 *
 * 		<ja>@Header</ja>(<js>"*"</js>)
 * 		Map&lt;String,Object&gt; getHeaders();
 * </p>
 * <p class='bjava'>
 * 	<jc>// Same as above but annotation defined on interface.</jc>
 * 	<ja>@RestGet</ja>(path=<js>"/mypath/{p1}/{p2}/*"</js>)
 * 	<jk>public void</jk> myMethod(MyRequest <jv>requestBean</jv>) {...}
 *
 *	<ja>@Request</ja>
 * 	<jk>public interface</jk> MyRequest {...}
 *
 * <p>
 * The return types of the getters must be the supported parameter types for the HTTP-part annotation used.
 * <br>Schema-based serialization and parsing is allowed just as if used as individual parameter types.
 *
 * <h5 class='section'>See Also:</h5><ul>
 * </ul>
 *
 * <h5 class='topic'>Arguments and argument-types of client-side @RemoteResource-annotated interfaces</h5>
 * <p>
 * Annotation applied to Java method arguments of interface proxies to denote a bean with remote resource annotations.
 *
 * <h5 class='section'>Example:</h5>
 * <p class='bjava'>
 * 	<ja>@RemoteResource</ja>(path=<js>"/myproxy"</js>)
 * 	<jk>public interface</jk> MyProxy {
 *
 * 		<ja>@RemoteGet</ja>(<js>"/mymethod/{p1}/{p2}"</js>)
 * 		String myProxyMethod(<ja>@Request</ja> MyRequest <jv>requestBean</jv>);
