/**
 * Implements the HTTP OPTIONS method.
 * 

 * The HTTP OPTIONS method is defined in section 9.2 of 
 * RFC2616:
 * 

 *  The OPTIONS method represents a request for information about the
 *  communication options available on the request/response chain
 *  identified by the Request-URI. This method allows the client to
 *  determine the options and/or requirements associated with a resource,
 *  or the capabilities of a server, without implying a resource action
 *  or initiating a resource retrieval.
