A special type of play.api.mvc.Handler which allows custom logic to be inserted
during handling. A Stage accepts a RequestHeader then returns a new
RequestHeader along with the next Handler to use during request
handling. The next handler could be a terminal Handler like an
EssentialAction, but it could also be another Stage. This means
it's possible to chains of Stages that should each be executed in turn.
To automatically execute all Stages you can call play.api.mvc.Handler.applyStages.
Some handlers are built as a series of stages, with each stage returning a new RequestHeader and another stage, until eventually a terminal handler is returned.
