/**
 * LoopBack 4 Security validation decorator
 * Renamed from @validate to @securityValidation for better clarity
 *
 * For LoopBack 4, it's recommended to use interceptors instead
 * of this decorator for better integration with the framework.
 *
 * However, this decorator can still be used for method-level validation.
 *
 * Usage in LoopBack 4 controller:
 * ```typescript
 * export class UserController {
 *   constructor(
 *     @inject(RestBindings.Http.REQUEST) private request: Request,
 *   ) {}
 *
 *   @securityValidation()
 *   @post('/users')
 *   async createUser(
 *     @requestBody() userData: CreateUserRequest,
 *   ): Promise<User> {
 *     // Security validation happens automatically before this method executes
 *     return this.userService.create(userData);
 *   }
 * }
 * ```
 *
 * @param options - Security validation options
 * @returns Method decorator function
