/**
 * REST has-query-parameter annotation.
 *
 * <p>
 * Identifies whether or not an HTTP request has the specified query parameter.
 *
 * <p>
 * Can be used in the following locations:
 * <ul>
 * 	<li>Arguments and argument-types of server-side <ja>@RestOp</ja>-annotated methods.
 * </ul>
 * <p>
 * 	Identical to {@link HasFormData @HasFormData}, but only checks the existing of the parameter in the URL string, not
 * 	URL-encoded form posts.
 * </p>
 * <p>
 * 	Unlike {@link HasFormData @HasFormData}, using this annotation does not result in the servlet reading the contents
 * 	of URL-encoded form posts.
 * 	Therefore, this annotation can be used in conjunction with the {@link Content @Cpmtemt} annotation or
 * 	{@code RestRequest.getContent()} method for <c>application/x-www-form-urlencoded POST</c> calls.
 *  </p>
 * <h5 class='figure'>Example:</h5>
 * <p class='bjava'>
 * 	<ja>@RestGet</ja>
 * 	<jk>public void</jk> doGet(<ja>@HasQuery</ja>(<js>"p1"</js>) <jk>boolean</jk> <jv>p1</jv>) {...}
 * </p>
 * <p>
 * 	This is functionally equivalent to the following code:
 * </p>
 * <p class='bjava'>
 * 	<ja>@RestGet</ja>
 * 	<jk>public void</jk> doGet(RestRequest <jv>req</jv>) {
 * 		<jk>boolean</jk> <jv>p1</jv> = <jv>req</jv>.getQueryParam(<js>"p1"</js>).isPresent();
 * 		...
 * 	}
 * </p>
 * <p>
 * 	The parameter type must be either <jk>boolean</jk> or {@link java.lang.Boolean}.
 * </p>
 * <p>
 * 	The following table shows the behavioral differences between <ja>@HasQuery</ja> and <ja>@Query</ja>:
 * </p>
 * <table class='styled w400'>
 * 	<tr>
 * 		<th><c>Query content</c></th>
 * 		<th><c><ja>@HasQuery</ja>(<js>"a"</js>)</c></th>
 * 		<th><c><ja>@Query</ja>(<js>"a"</js>)</c></th>
 * 	</tr>
 * 	<tr>
 * 		<td><c>?a=foo</c></td>
 * 		<td><jk>true</jk></td>
 * 		<td><js>"foo"</js></td>
 * 	</tr>
 * 	<tr>
 * 		<td><c>?a=</c></td>
 * 		<td><jk>true</jk></td>
 * 		<td><js>""</js></td>
 * 	</tr>
 * 	<tr>
 * 		<td><c>?a</c></td>
 * 		<td><jk>true</jk></td>
 * 		<td><jk>null</jk></td>
 * 	</tr>
 * 	<tr>
 * 		<td><c>?b=foo</c></td>
 * 		<td><jk>false</jk></td>
 * 		<td><jk>null</jk></td>
 * 	</tr>
 * </table>
 * <p>
 * <ul class='seealso'>
 * 	<li class='extlink'>{@source}
 * </ul>
