Allow order Interceptors by using @Order annotation in the @Bean definition

[lumeche]

The problem

We have a spring boot application that uses ServerInterceptors that we don't own. We found that the interceptors get called in a deterministic order based on the @Order annotation in the ServerInterceptor class. The problem I found is that if the @Order annotation is added to the @Bean definition it won't have any effect

The solution

I would like to be able to have a @Configuration class where I can define one @Bean per ServerInterceptor I want to register. I do want to be able to define the @Order as part of the bean definition so I could tell the library in which order I want them being called.

Alternatives considered

Another option is having the possibility to overwrite that order using GrpcServerConfigurer or GlobalServerInterceptorConfigurer
