/**
 * Apply this filter to enable the HTTP Request unit of work and to have
 * guice-persist manage the lifecycle of active units of work.
 * The filter automatically starts and stops the relevant {@link PersistService}
 * upon {@link javax.servlet.Filter#init(javax.servlet.FilterConfig)} and
 * {@link javax.servlet.Filter#destroy()} respectively.
 *
 * <p> To be able to use the open session-in-view pattern (i.e. work per request),
 * register this filter <b>once in your Guice {@code ServletModule}. It is
 * important that you register this filter before any other filter.
 *
 * For multiple providers, you should register this filter once per provider, inside
 * a private module for each persist module installed (this must be the same private
 * module where the specific persist module is itself installed).
 *
 * <p>
 * Example configuration:
 * <pre>{@code
 *  public class MyModule extends ServletModule {
 *    public void configureServlets() {
 *      filter("/*").through(PersistFilter.class);
 *
 *      serve("/index.html").with(MyHtmlServlet.class);
 *      // Etc.
 *    }
 *  }
 * }</pre>
 * <p>
 * This filter is thread safe and allows you to create injectors concurrently
 * and deploy multiple guice-persist modules within the same injector, or even
 * multiple injectors with persist modules withing the same JVM or web app.
 * <p>
 * This filter requires the Guice Servlet extension.
