     * {@code true} from the {@code isMappable(Throwable)} method or until a first provider
     * is found which best supports the exception type and does not implement {@code ExtendedExceptionMapper}
     * API (i.e. it is a standard JAX-RS {@link ExceptionMapper}). The order in which the providers are
     * checked is determined by the distance of the declared exception mapper type and the actual exception
     * type.
