/**
 * REST method guard.
 *
 * <h5 class='topic'>Description</h5>
 *
 * Implements a guard mechanism for REST method calls that allows requests to be rejected before invocation of the REST
 * method.
 * For example, guards can be used to ensure that only administrators can call certain methods.
 *
 * <p>
 * Guards are applied to REST methods declaratively through the {@link Rest#guards() @Rest(guards)} or
 * {@link RestMethod#guards() @RestMethod(guards)} annotations.
 *
 * <p>
 * If multiple guards are specified, ALL guards must pass in order for the request to proceed.
 *
 * <h5 class='topic'>How to implement</h5>
 *
 * Typically, guards will be used for permissions checking on the user making the request, but it can also be used for
 * other purposes like pre-call validation of a request.
 *
 * <p>
 * Implementers should simply throw a {@link HttpException} from the {@link #guard(RestRequest, RestResponse)}
 * method to abort processing on the current request.
 *
 * <p>
 * Guards must implement a no-args constructor.
 *
 * <h5 class='topic'>Example usage:</h5>
 * <p class='bcode w800'>
 * 	<jk>public</jk> MyResource <jk>extends</jk> RestServlet {
 *
 * 		<jc>// Delete method with guard that only allows Billy to call it.</jc>
 * 		<ja>@RestMethod</ja>(name=<jsf>DELETE</jsf>, guards=BillyGuard.<jk>class</jk>)
 * 		<jk>public</jk> doDelete(RestRequest req, RestResponse res) <jk>throws</jk> Exception {...}
 * 	}
 * </p>
 *
 * <h5 class='topic'>Example implementation:</h5>
 * <p class='bcode w800'>
 * 	<jc>// Define a guard that only lets Billy make a request</jc>
 * 	<jk>public</jk> BillyGuard <jk>extends</jk> RestGuard {
 *
 * 		<ja>@Override</ja>
 * 		<jk>public boolean</jk> isRequestAllowed(RestRequest req) {
 * 			return req.getUserPrincipal().getName().contains(<js>"Billy"</js>);
 * 		}
 * 	}
 * </p>
