parlov-elicit 0.3.0

//! `EmptyBodyElicitation` -- probes with a minimal empty JSON object body.
//!
//! Sends `{}` as the body on both baseline and probe requests with
//! `Content-Type: application/json`. The oracle signal is the server returning
//! 422 for an existing resource versus 404 for a nonexistent one.
