[Kimchi-devel] [PATCH 1/2] Return empty dict when request body is empty

If Kimchi receives a POST or PUT command with an empty body, a 400 error is returned because the server cannot parse the [empty] body. Add an additional check on the server so the request body is only parsed if it has content; otherwise, an empty dict will be returned.
