The ProtocolHandlerFactory is used to retrieve a
ProtocolHandler to handle HTTP transactions. The
ProtocolHandler retrieved uses the implementation
of the ResourceEngine to produce delegate handlers
for the HTTP transaction.
A useful purpose for the ProtocolHandlerFactory
is also to tie the ProtocolHandler implementation
to an interface rather than an object implementation that may
become obsolete due to new requirements.
