/**
 * HTTP response interceptor to intercept the end of {@link HttpRequest#execute()} before returning
 * a successful response or throwing an exception for an unsuccessful response.
 *
 * <p>
 * For example, this might be used to add a simple timer on requests:
 * </p>
 *
 * <pre>
  public static class TimerResponseInterceptor implements HttpResponseInterceptor {

    private final long startTime = System.nanoTime();

    public void interceptResponse(HttpResponse response) {
      long elapsedNanos = System.nanoTime() - startTime;
      System.out.println("elapsed seconds: " + TimeUnit.NANOSECONDS.toSeconds(elapsedNanos) + "s");
    }
  }
 * </pre>
 *
 * <p>
 * Sample usage with a request factory:
 * </p>
 *
 * <pre>
  public static HttpRequestFactory createRequestFactory(HttpTransport transport) {
    return transport.createRequestFactory(new HttpRequestInitializer() {

      {@literal @}Override
      public void initialize(HttpRequest request) {
        request.setResponseInterceptor(new TimerResponseInterceptor());
      }
    });
  }
 * </pre>
 *
 * <p>
 * More complex usage example:
 * </p>
 *
 * <pre>
  public static HttpRequestFactory createRequestFactory2(HttpTransport transport) {
    final HttpResponseInterceptor responseInterceptor = new TimerResponseInterceptor();
    return transport.createRequestFactory(new HttpRequestInitializer() {

      public void initialize(HttpRequest request) {
        request.setResponseInterceptor(new HttpResponseInterceptor() {

          public void interceptResponse(HttpResponse response) throws IOException {
            responseInterceptor.interceptResponse(response);
          }
        });
      }
    });
  }
 * </pre>
 *
 * <p>
 * Implementations should normally be thread-safe.
 * </p>
