Description

The discussion in #2937 revealed that Jersey 2.x documentation in [Section 3.2](https://jersey.java.net/documentation/latest/user-guide.html#d0e1912) documents how to use "customer request parameter" converters in @*Param.

However, in Jersey 1.x, it was possible to use "message body readers/writers" for such use case although not specifically documented in JAX-RS 1.0 specification.

This ticket requests to make explicit reference to this breaking change from Jersey 1.x to Jersey 2.x for the users.
#### Affected Versions
[2.13]
