 * Annotation applied to auto-registered, exported types.

 * <p>Plugins or extensions using auto-registration should apply this annotation to any non-abstract
 * class they want exported for access.
 *
 * <p>For SSH commands the {@literal @Export} annotation names the subcommand:
 *
 * <pre>
 *   {@literal @Export("print")}
 *   class MyCommand extends SshCommand {
 * </pre>
 *
 * For HTTP servlets, the {@literal @Export} annotation names the URL the servlet is bound to,
 * relative to the plugin or extension's namespace within the Gerrit container.
 *
 * <pre>
 *  {@literal @Export("/index.html")}
 *  class ShowIndexHtml extends HttpServlet {
 * </pre>
