Remarks

Prefer IAsyncServiceProvider3 and this class over using IServiceProvider, IAsyncServiceProvider and IAsyncServiceProvider2 directly to avoid unexpected blocking RPC calls when casting the resulting service to a specific interface. The former also provide more consistent throwing behavior.

GetService<TService,TInterface>(IServiceProvider, Boolean)	Retrieves a proffered service synchronously, specifying whether to throw an exception if it could not be retrieved.
GetService<TService,TInterface>(IServiceProvider)	Retrieves a proffered service synchronously, throwing an exception if it could not be retrieved.
GetServiceAsync<TService,TInterface>(IAsyncServiceProvider, Boolean, CancellationToken)	Retrieves a proffered service asynchronously, specifying whether to throw an exception if it could not be retrieved.
GetServiceAsync<TService,TInterface>(IAsyncServiceProvider, Boolean)	Retrieves a proffered service asynchronously, specifying whether to throw an exception if it could not be retrieved.
GetServiceAsync<TService,TInterface>(IAsyncServiceProvider, CancellationToken)	Retrieves a proffered service asynchronously, throwing an exception if it could not be retrieved.
GetServiceAsync<TService,TInterface>(IAsyncServiceProvider)	Retrieves a proffered service asynchronously, throwing an exception if it could not be retrieved.
