public interface ScannerService

This SPI is for abstracting the class scanning. In a production environment Many different modules need to perform class scanning (EJB, JSF, JPA, ...). This SPI allows us to only have one central class scanner for the whole application server which only performs the scanning once at startup of each WebApp.
