To me core is ideal:
when you develop these components, it's as if you were running in an 
embedded environment (which is what the server essentially is), and core 
is the closest you can get.

These interfaces provide filter/converter instances to be installed in server/hotrod, but we expect users to provide implementations of such classes and plug the server with them.

With this in mind, core/ might be the best place for it. They cannot live in commons/ cos it’d would require to move KeyValueFilter/Converter and other dependant classes to commons.
