/// The HTTP adapter serializes `TResponse` as JSON, so it must implement
/// [`serde::Serialize`] — unless it is [`crate::route::scan::ResponseData`],
/// the raw-response envelope used for file downloads and other responses that
/// control their own status, headers and body. That is why this trait itself
/// only requires `Send`: the `Serialize` bound is enforced where the value is
/// actually serialized.
///
/// - `TResponse: Serialize` → framework writes JSON and sets status 200
/// - `TResponse = ()`        → framework writes no body and sets status 204
/// - `TResponse = ResponseData` → the handler builds the whole response
///

/// impl IRequest<UserModel> for GetUserRequest {}
/// impl IRequest<()> for DeleteUserRequest {}
/// impl IRequest<ResponseData> for DownloadFileRequest {}

/// available on `dyn IMediator`:
