Method Not Allowed errors

If we get a request with a method that does not have a corresponding view, HTTP 405 Method Not Allowed response is returned:

>>> print http(r"""
... FROG / HTTP/1.1
... """)
HTTP/1.1 405 Method Not Allowed
Allow: DELETE, MKCOL, OPTIONS, PROPFIND, PROPPATCH, PUT
Content-Length: 18
<BLANKLINE>
Method Not Allowed
>>> print http(r"""
... DELETE / HTTP/1.1
... Authorization: Basic mgr:mgrpw
... """)
HTTP/1.1 405 Method Not Allowed
...

The request below should return 405, but instead crashes with a TypeError, when the view tries to adapt context to IWriteFile.

# >>> print http(r""" # ... PUT / HTTP/1.1 # ... Authorization: Basic mgr:mgrpw # ... """, handle_errors=False) # HTTP/1.1 405 Method Not Allowed # ...
