     - `payload` - determines how the request payload is processed. Defaults to _'parse'_ if `schema` is present or `method` is _'POST'_ or _'PUT'_, otherwise _'stream'_. Payload processing is configured using the server [`payload`](#payload) option. Options are:
         - _'stream'_ - the incoming request stream is left untouched, leaving it up to the handler to process the request via _'request.raw.req'_. Note that the request readable stream is put in a paused state and must be resumed before it will emit data events.
