The JSON API specification states that all resources must support direct
modification of resource relationships by providing only the definition
for a particular relationship type to a /:type/:id/relationships/:type
endpoint.
The relevant part of the JSON API specification:

The /maxscale/ resource now supports PUT requests which modify core
parameters. As not all parameters can be changed at runtime, only
modifications to parameters that support runtime configuration are
allowed.
A set of the core MaxScale parameters can now be altered at runtime. This
set consists of the authentication timeouts and the admin interface
authentication. Other parameters either can't be modified due to internal
limitations or aren't sensible to modify at runtime.
Service parameters can now be altered with a PUT request to the REST
API. This allows general level parameters to be altered.
Module specific parameters need to be altered with a different mechanism,
namely the module command system. This requires that a generic way to call
a function needs to be devised.
Monitor resources can now be altered with a PUT request. The method allows
alterations on all parameters that the maxadmin `alter monitor` command
allows.
The server can now be modified with a PUT request of a modified server
resource. The server resource was reorganized to have the parameters as a
separate entity from the other more general entities of the resource.
The PUT/POST functions return a more appropriate error message when no
request body is provided.
Moved some of the constant names used in server.cc into the config.h
header.
