/**
 * HTTP PATCH method.
 * 
 * The HTTP PATCH method is defined in RF5789: 
 The PATCH
 * method requests that a set of changes described in the request entity be applied to the resource identified by the
 * Request- URI. Differs from the PUT method in the way the server processes the enclosed entity to modify the resource
 * identified by the Request-URI. In a PUT request, the enclosed entity origin server, and the client is requesting that
 * the stored version be replaced. With PATCH, however, the enclosed entity contains a set of instructions describing
 * how a resource currently residing on the origin server should be modified to produce a new version. 
 *
