    '''CherryPy Tool that validates request Content-Type.

    This is a CherryPy Tool that checks the Content-Type in a request and
    raises HTTP Error 415 "Unsupported Media Type" if it does not match.

    The tool accepts a glob style pattern or list of patterns (see fnmatch)
    and verifies the Content-Type in the request matches at least one of
    the patterns, if not a HTTP Error 415 "Unsupported Media Type" is raised.

    If absent_ok is False and if the request does not contain a
    Content-Type header a HTTP Error 415 "Unsupported Media Type" is
    raised.

    The tool may be deployed use any of the standard methods for
    invoking CherryPy tools, for example as a decorator:

    @cherrypy.tools.require_content_type(required='text/xml')
    def POST(self, *args, **kwargs):
        pass

    :param required: May be a single string or a list of strings. Each
           string is interpreted as a glob style pattern (see fnmatch).
           The Content-Type must match at least one pattern.

    :param absent_ok: Boolean specifying if the Content-Type header
           must be present or if it is OK to be absent.
