public interface Services
A Lookup for services. Looking up services is a two step process. First get the name of the service, then use the name to get the service. This is to allow services to be accessed directly in configuration using the mapped property syntax my-component.services(executor-service).

The Service name can be anything but so that it can be used in configuration it is advisable that it doesn't contain any of reserved characters .[]()

An optional flavour can be specified which may affect the service provided. For instance serviceNameFor(ExecutorService.class, "pooled") might return "executor-service;pooled", which can the be passed to the @{link getService(String) method.

Implementations should document what services they provide and there names.
