/**
* Provides a way to reset an object to its initial state.
*
* When calling the "reset()" method on an object, it should be put back to its
* initial state. This usually means clearing any internal buffers and forwarding
* the call to internal dependencies. All properties of the object should be put
* back to the same state it had when it was first ready to use.
*
* This method could be called, for example, to recycle objects that are used as
* services, so that they can be used to handle several requests in the same
* process loop (note that we advise making your services stateless instead of
* implementing this interface when possible.)
