Description

Camel has the concept of ComponentCustomizer which is currently used only by spring-boot starters and I wonder if we can make it a generic concept so basically after configuring the component with properties, we should search for customizers in the camel registry and apply them to the component itself.

Examples:

• https://github.com/apache/camel-spring-boot/blob/master/components-starter/camel-ehcache-starter/src/main/java/org/apache/camel/component/ehcache/springboot/EhcacheComponentAutoConfiguration.java
• https://github.com/apache/camel-spring-boot/blob/master/components-starter/camel-ehcache-starter/src/main/java/org/apache/camel/component/ehcache/springboot/EhcacheComponentAutoConfiguration.java
