/**
 * Helper class used for handling details of creating handler instances (things
 * like {@link JsonSerializer}s, {@link JsonDeserializer}s, various type
 * handlers) of specific types. Actual handler type has been resolved at this
 * point, so instantiator is strictly responsible for providing a configured
 * instance by constructing and configuring a new instance, or possibly by
 * recycling a shared instance. One use case is that of allowing
 * dependency injection, which would otherwise be difficult to do.
 *<p>
 * Custom instances are allowed to return null to indicate that caller should
 * use the default instantiation handling (which just means calling no-argument
 * constructor via reflection).
 *<p>
 * Care has to be taken to ensure that if instance returned is shared, it will
 * be thread-safe; caller will not synchronize access to returned instances.
