/// Order and scope control the execution order of filters. Filters with a higher value of Order execute
/// later in the pipeline.
///
/// When filters have the same Order, the Scope value is used to determine the order of execution. Filters
/// with a higher value of Scope execute later in the pipeline. See <c>Microsoft.AspNetCore.Mvc.FilterScope</c>
/// for commonly used scopes.
///
/// For <see cref="IExceptionFilter"/> implementations, the filter runs only after an exception has occurred,
/// and so the observed order of execution will be opposite that of other filters.
/// </remarks>
