/**
 * An abstract class for XSRF protected RPC service implementations, which
 * decides if XSRF protection should be enforced on a method invocation based
 * on the following logic:
 * <ul>
 *  <li>RPC interface or method can be annotated with either {@link XsrfProtect}
 *      or {@link NoXsrfProtect} annotation to enable or disable XSRF protection
 *      on all methods of an RPC interface or a single method correspondingly.
 *  <li>RPC interface level annotation can be overridden by a method level
 *      annotation.
 *  <li>If no annotations are present and RPC interface contains method that
 *      returns {@link RpcToken} or its implementation, then XSRF token
 *      validation is performed on all methods of that interface except for the
 *      method returning {@link RpcToken}.
 * </ul>
