-----------------------------------

George: for server-generated keys: if key is provided, relate and update target, otherwise create and relate new target entity

> Section 11.4.4 Upsert an Entity allows upsert request to any URL that identifies a single entity. It then references section 11.4.2 Create an Entity, which only talks about creating entities in a collection
> Clarify that upsert is also valid along a nullable single-valued navigation property, at least as long the key property values are client-defined. May also work with server-defined keys by responding with 201 and a location header with the canonical URL of the newly created entity.
