/**
 * _mixinReqParamsAll
 *
 * Mixes in `req.params.all()`, a convenience method to grab all parameters,
 * whether they're in the path (req.params), query string (req.query),
 * or request body (req.body).
 *
 * Note: this has to be determined per-route, not per request,
 * in order to refer to the proper route/path parameters.
 * e.g. if a request comes in and matches `GET /about` AND `GET /:username`
 * then the set of all params varies depending on which handler is being run.
 * Now that said, since changing the implementation to avoid precalculating
 * unless allParams is actually called, this may not necessarily need to be
 * the case anymore. More exhaustive testing would be required to make that change.
 *
 *
 * @param {Request} req
 * @param {Response} res
