/**
 * <p>
 * Specifies that a bean is request scoped.
 * </p>
 * <p>
 * While <tt>RequestScoped</tt> must be associated with the built-in request context required by the specification,
 * third-party extensions are
 * allowed to also associate it with their own context. Behavior described below is only related to the built-in request context.
 * </p>
 *
 * <p>
 * The request scope is active:
 * </p>
 *
 * <ul>
 * <li>during the <tt>service()</tt> method of any servlet in the web application, during the <tt>doFilter()</tt> method of any
 * servlet filter and when the container calls any <tt>ServletRequestListener</tt> or <tt>AsyncListener</tt>,</li>
 * <li>during any Jakarta EE web service invocation,</li>
 * <li>during any remote method invocation of any Jakarta Enterprise Bean, during any asynchronous method invocation of any Jakarta Enterprise Bean, during any call to
 * an Jakarta Enterprise Bean timeout method and during message delivery to any Jakarta Enterprise Bean message-driven bean, and</li>
 * <li>during <tt>@PostConstruct</tt> callback of any bean.</li>
 * </ul>
 *
 * <p>
 * The request context is destroyed:
 * </p>
 *
 * <ul>
 * <li>at the end of the servlet request, after the <tt>service()</tt> method, all <tt>doFilter()</tt> methods, and all
 * <tt>requestDestroyed()</tt> and <tt>onComplete()</tt> notifications return,</li>
 * <li>after the web service invocation completes,</li>
 * <li>after the Jakarta Enterprise Bean remote method invocation, asynchronous method invocation, timeout or message delivery completes if it
 * did not already exist when the invocation occurred, or</li>
 * <li>after the <tt>@PostConstruct</tt> callback completes, if it did not already exist when the <tt>@PostConstruct</tt>
 * callback occurred.</li>
 * </ul>
 *
 * <p>
 * An event with qualifier <tt>@Initialized(RequestScoped.class)</tt> is fired when the request context is initialized and an
 * event
 * with qualifier <tt>@Destroyed(RequestScoped.class)</tt> when the request context is destroyed. The event payload is:
 * </p>
 *
 * <ul>
 * <li>the <tt>ServletRequest</tt> if the context is initialized or destroyed due to a servlet request, or</li>
 * <li>the <tt>ServletRequest</tt> if the context is initialized or destroyed due to a web service invocation, or</li>
 * <li>any <tt>java.lang.Object</tt> for other types of request.</li>
 * </ul>
