Title: HTTP Client Supporting PATCH Method

This is a basic update to the supported HTTP methods in the Request and Client libraries to allow PATCH to be used. PATCH differs from PUT in that PATCH signifies only the changes to a resource rather than a complete replacement that PUT calls for. PATCH is typically used in RESTful APIs to signify batch updates to a collection of a resource.

This pull request will allow any implementations using the Zend Client for API requests to start using this method.

PATCH is described here: http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5789
