Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/fsouza/fake-gcs-server/issues/332

When starting a resumable upload the body with object metadata is optional. And at least the C++ client library takes advantage of this. The documentation is not explicit, but there are examples in the documentation that do not use a body:

https://cloud.google.com/storage/docs/performing-resumable-uploads#json-api

An equivalent request fails with fake-gcs-server:

$ curl --verbose -X POST -H 'Content-Length: 0' -H 'Content-Type: application/json'  'http://localhost:4443/storage/v1/b/fake-bucket/o?uploadType=resumable&name=fake-object'
