JSON API spec violation when updating a resource

[X-Coder264]

JSON API update resource specification

A resource can be updated by sending a PATCH request to the URL that represents the resource.

The JSON API specification states that the resource should be updated using a PATCH request. The CMF uses PUT instead which is a clear violation of the specification and because of it the CMF can't be used as-is with any JSON API compliant backend library, even though the CMF claims to speak "JSON API".

Example of a Laravel JSON API compliant backend library (and the routes it creates for a JSON API resource, notice that "PATCH" is used for updating the resource):
