* HTTP POST method.
*
* The HTTP POST method is defined in section 9.5 of
* RFC2616:
*
*
* The POST method is used to request that the origin server accept the entity
* enclosed in the request as a new subordinate of the resource identified by
* the Request-URI in the Request-Line. POST is designed to allow a uniform
* method to cover the following functions:
*
* - Annotation of existing resources
* - Posting a message to a bulletin board, newsgroup, mailing list, or
* similar group of articles
* - Providing a block of data, such as the result of submitting a form,
* to a data-handling process
* - Extending a database through an append operation
