 HTTP/1.1 is nice, but the verbs are fairly strictly filtered by a bunch of
 web application firewalls.

 For wider compatibility, we should default to HTTP/1.0, making use of the
 `X-HTTP-Method-Override` header.

 See https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/5741 for an example shim,
 and examples of broken sites.
