 * An interface that controls the Kryo instance used by Storm for serialization.

 * 1. The Kryo instance is constructed using getKryo

 * 3. Storm calls preRegister hook
 * 4. Storm registers all user-defined registrations through topology.kryo.register
 * 5. Storm calls postRegister hook
 * 6. Storm calls all user-defined decorators through topology.kryo.decorators
 * 7. Storm calls postDecorate hook
