When a metadata parameter is annotated as @infer, RPC macro engine will materialize that parameter by searching
for an implicit value of that parameter's type. @infer is the default strategy assumed for implicit parameters
of metadata classes, so using this annotation explicitly is only needed when you want an implicit search done
for non-implicit parameter. This may be useful if, e.g. you want an inferred parameter to be a case class field.
NOTE: By default, implicit search for @infer parameter does NOT affect the decision about whether some real
method or real parameter matches a metadata parameter. For example, if an implicit for @infer parameter cannot be
found, you will only know about it *after* the metadata materializing macro has already been expanded.
This behaviour can be changed with checked annotation.
