Research direction

Start by reading the SwaggerProvider constructor and the WebApiConfig formatter setup shown in the issue, including MessagePackMediaTypeFormatter. Trace how the provider is initialized and determine the intended constructor input; done means a caller can supply an optional formatter and existing provider behavior remains unchanged.

Description

enhancement help wanted

Within .NET WebAPI, its possible to add custom formatters for the message types, under WebApiConfig.
e.g.

        public static void Register(HttpConfiguration config)
        {
            // Web API configuration and services

            // Web API routes
            config.MapHttpAttributeRoutes();
            config.Formatters.Add(new MessagePackMediaTypeFormatter());

It'd be cool if we could add a formatter to the SwaggerProvider type constructor!
