/**
 * This interface provides an immutable object with with accessors to
 * request variables and headers.
 *
 * Access request variables by method and name.
 *
 * Examples:
 *
 * $request->post['myvar']; // Only look for POST variables
 * $request->myvar; or $request->{'myvar'}; or $request->{$myvar}
 * Looks in the combined GET, POST and urlParams array.
 *
 * If you access e.g. ->post but the current HTTP request method
 * is GET a \LogicException will be thrown.
 *
 * NOTE:
 * - When accessing ->put a stream resource is returned and the accessor
 *   will return false on subsequent access to ->put or ->patch.
 * - When accessing ->patch and the Content-Type is either application/json
 *   or application/x-www-form-urlencoded (most cases) it will act like ->get
 *   and ->post and return an array. Otherwise the raw data will be returned.
