/**
 * Decodes the content of the received {@link HttpRequest} and {@link HttpContent}.
 * The original content is replaced with the new content decoded by the
 * {@link EmbeddedChannel}, which is created by {@link #newContentDecoder(String)}.
 * Once decoding is finished, the value of the <tt>'Content-Encoding'</tt>
 * header is set to the target content encoding, as returned by {@link #getTargetContentEncoding(String)}.
 * Also, the <tt>'Content-Length'</tt> header is updated to the length of the
 * decoded content.  If the content encoding of the original is not supported
 * by the decoder, {@link #newContentDecoder(String)} should return {@code null}
 * so that no decoding occurs (i.e. pass-through).
 * <p>
 * Please note that this is an abstract class.  You have to extend this class
 * and implement {@link #newContentDecoder(String)} properly to make this class
 * functional.  For example, refer to the source code of {@link HttpContentDecompressor}.
 * <p>
 * This handler must be placed after {@link HttpObjectDecoder} in the pipeline
 * so that this handler can intercept HTTP requests after {@link HttpObjectDecoder}
 * converts {@link ByteBuf}s into HTTP requests.
