What changes were proposed in this pull request?
the PATCH http method was not implemented and is necessary for certain REST api's (e.g. Apache Metron) to function.
How was this patch tested?
It was tested by manually replacing the gateway-spi jar by the newly built one and validating if the expected functionality works properly.
Before the patch, Knox would return a 405 http error when a patch request was submitted. After the patch, a 200 OK is returned as expected.
