The BinaryController is responsible for serving binary files (images, pdf documents etc) that are managed by Tridion. These binaries are stored in the broker database. On first request the binary is read from the broker database and is stored on file system in a location specified by binaryRootFolder.

The first request will be time consuming as the cached version of the file needs to be written to filesystem. For every subsequent request the cached version will be served.

The request mapping supports an array of strings, but we need a way to configure this without modifying source code.

Important Note: concrete implementing classes will need to add the @RequestMapping annotations!
