/**
 * Document for redirection entries with the RedirectController.
 *
 * Defines additional methods needed by the RedirectController to redirect
 * based on the route.
 *
 * This document may define (in order of precedence - the others can be empty):
 *
 * - uri: an absolute uri
 * - routeName and routeParameters: to be used with the standard symfony router
 *   or a route entry in the routeParameters for the DynamicRouter. Precedency
 *   between these is determined by the order of the routers in the chain
 *   router.
 *
 * With standard Symfony routing, you can just use uri / routeName and a
 * hashmap of parameters.
 *
 * For the dynamic router, you can return a RouteInterface instance in the
 * field 'route' of the parameters.
 *
 * Note: getRedirectContent must return the redirect route itself for the
 * integration with DynamicRouter to work.
