Support for PATCH requests

[wolfganggallo]

The page contains two pieces of information that seem to contradict each other:

1. Within the SCIM 2.0 protocol specification, your application must meet these requirements:

   • Supports modifying users or groups with PATCH requests, as per section 3.5.2 of the SCIM protocol.

2. Follow these general guidelines when implementing a SCIM endpoint to ensure compatibility with Azure AD:

   • Groups are optional, but only supported if the SCIM implementation supports PATCH requests.

Now, is the support for PATCH requests a requirement or not?

What should we return in the ServiceProviderConfig according to https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7643#section-5 and https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7644#section-4.
