/**
 * The lazy injector can be used to retrieve services from the container in deferred fashion.
 * Instead of directly injecting the service, the service provider can be injected and used to retrieve the service
 * at a later point when it is actually needed. Services are cached after the first retrieval.
 *
 * The lazy injector bound in transient scope. This means each injecting class gets its own instance.
 *
 * This can be used in places where eager injection via decorator would lead to circular dependency issues.
 * For example if injecting the following service causes a circular dependency:
 * ```ts
 * @inject(TYPES.IActionDispatcher) protected actionDispatcher: IActionDispatcher;
 * ```
 * You can use the lazy injector to resolve the dependency issue as follows:
 *
 * ```ts
 * @inject(LazyInjector) protected lazyInjector: LazyInjector;
 * get actionDispatcher(): IActionDispatcher {
 *    return this.lazyInjector.get(TYPES.IActionDispatcher);
 * }
 * ```
 *
 * Use the lazy injector with caution. In general direct constructor or property injection is always preferred.
 * The lazy injector should only be used in cases where direct injection is not possible due to circular dependencies.
 * Also keep in mind that the lazy injector should not be accessed in the constructor or `@postConstruct` method of a class.
 * This would defeat the purpose of the lazy injector and lead to the same circular dependency issues.
