/// Request-local data extractor.
///
/// Request-local data is arbitrary data attached to an individual request, usually
/// by middleware. It can be set via `extensions_mut` on [`HttpRequest`][htr_ext_mut]
/// or [`ServiceRequest`][srv_ext_mut].
///
/// Unlike app data, request data is dropped when the request has finished processing. This makes it
/// useful as a kind of messaging system between middleware and request handlers. It uses the same
/// types-as-keys storage system as app data.
///
/// # Mutating Request Data
/// Note that since extractors must output owned data, only types that `impl Clone` can use this
/// extractor. A clone is taken of the required request data and can, therefore, not be directly
/// mutated in-place. To mutate request data, continue to use [`HttpRequest::extensions_mut`] or
/// re-insert the cloned data back into the extensions map. A `DerefMut` impl is intentionally not
/// provided to make this potential foot-gun more obvious.
///
/// # Example
/// ```rust,no_run
/// # use actix_web::{web, HttpResponse, HttpRequest, Responder};
///
/// #[derive(Debug, Clone, PartialEq)]
/// struct FlagFromMiddleware(String);
///
/// /// Use the `ReqData<T>` extractor to access request data in a handler.
/// async fn handler(
///     req: HttpRequest,
///     opt_flag: Option<web::ReqData<FlagFromMiddleware>>,
/// ) -> impl Responder {
///     // use an optional extractor if the middleware is
///     // not guaranteed to add this type of requests data
///     if let Some(flag) = opt_flag {
///         assert_eq!(&flag.into_inner(), req.extensions().get::<FlagFromMiddleware>().unwrap());
///     }
///     
///     HttpResponse::Ok()
/// }
/// ```
