      Description

      Steps to reproduce

      1. Create a File document and populate the files:files metadata with some items
      2. Make the following REST call to update the newly created document - change the id in the URL
        HTTP PUT http://localhost:8080/nuxeo/api/v1/id/6733ed51-e6fa-4b37-9b8d-9f10413b5da9
        
        {
            "entity-type": "document",
            "type": "File",
            "properties": {
                "dc:subjects": [
                    "art/architecture"
                ]
            }
        }
        
      3. observe, in the UI or in the REST response, that the files:files metadata is now empty

      The problem is due to an incorrect JSON body, where the uid is missing.

      However an incorrect body should raise an error, not provoke a data loss

      Expected behavior: return an error to inform the user that the request is invalid (JSON body invalid)
