In initial request https://issues.alfresco.com/jira/browse/ACTIVITI-2413
only GET and DEL are requested

As discussed with @salaboy we don't need a POST endpoint but just a PUT.
From the Admin UI, a user should be able to update only existing variables but not to create/delete the existing one.

I think a POST to create a variable is important otherwise it will be not possible for admins to troubleshoot processes that are broken due to a missing variable (i.e. deleted or not created by error).

Let's support update for now..
@balsarori can you share an example where creating a new variable will help to solve a problem?

[salaboy]

@balsarori @mauriziovitale it was decided to use PUT because the implementation now allows you to update variables values only, instead of creating new ones.
