PolicyResolverFactory provides a way to override Effective Policy Resolution for a Service or Client.
JAX-WS provides DEFAULT_POLICY_RESOLVER implementation that
     on server-side validates that Policy has single alternative in the scope of each subject
     on client-side updates with the effective policy by doing alternative selection.
Extensions can override this to consult other forms of configuration to give the effective PolicyMap.
