 * Builds a Dependency Manager Service Adapter Component.
 * The adapter will be applied to any service that matches the specified interface and filter. For each matching service an adapter will be created 
 * based on the adapter implementation class. The adapter will be registered with the specified interface and existing properties from the original 
 * service plus any extra properties you supply here.<p>
 * 
 * Code example that adapts a "Device" service to an HttpServlet service. The adapter is created using a ServiceAdapterBuilder that is passed to the lambda.
