MXS-1220: Add support for PATCH

Browse Source 
The PATCH method should now be used instead the PUT method to update
resources.  As PUT request bodies should represent complete resources, the
use of PUT to update resources is no longer supported.

Altered tests to use PATCH instead of PUT for updating resources.

type and the request body must be a complete and valid JSON representation of a
resource. All PATCH requests must use the `Content-Type: application/json` media
type and the request body must be a JSON document containing a partial

The current version of the API supports PATCH-like PUT requests with
partial definitions of resources in the request body. This is discouraged
as it goes against the intended use of the PUT method. Future versions of
the MaxScale REST API can remove this support which means that this
functionality is deprecated.
