OData version error when requesting 4.01 bulk update

Assemblies affected

Microsoft.AspNetCore.OData 8.2.5
Microsoft.OData.Client 7.21.3

Describe the bug Related issue: https://github.com/OData/odata.net/issues/3004

My primary question is: does Microsoft.AspNetCore.OData support the OData 4.01 spec, specifically bulk update operations?

When the client sends a bulk update request with the OData-Version header set to 4.01 the library throws the exception An OData version of 4.01 was specified and the maximum supported OData version is 4.0., then continues to the controller action with the DeltaSet<T> parameter as null. If I send an identical request from postman with the header set to 4.0 instead, the library seemingly has no issue and populates the DeltaSet<T> as expected (for a simple model without related entities or links).

Reproduce steps I implemented Sample Request 1 from the OData Client Bulk Update Operations examples on my client. And implemented an endpoint on my server to "patch a collection of entities" from this Microsoft.AspNetCore.OData tutorial.

Note: I modified the client example to work with the Shape model from the server example.

Client code:

Default.Container context = new Default.Container(new Uri("https://localhost:7092/odata/"), Microsoft.OData.Client.ODataProtocolVersion.V4);

Shape s1 = new Shape { Id = 1, Area = 10 };
context.AddToShapes(s1);

Shape s2 = new Shape { Id = 2, Area = 20 };
context.AddToShapes(s2);

context.BulkUpdate(s1, s2);

Server code:

// Program.cs
var builder = WebApplication.CreateBuilder(args);
var modelBuilder = new ODataConventionModelBuilder();
modelBuilder.EntitySet<Shape>("Shapes");

builder.Services.AddControllers()
    .AddOData(opts =>
    {
        opts.EnableQueryFeatures().AddRouteComponents("odata", modelBuilder.GetEdmModel());
    });

// ShapesController.cs
public class ShapesController : ODataController
{
    private static List<Shape> shapes = new List<Shape>
    {
        new Shape { Id = 1, Area = 28 },
        new Shape { Id = 2, Area = 38.5 },
        new Shape { Id = 3, Area = 40 }
    };

    public async Task<ActionResult> Patch([FromBody] DeltaSet<Shape> deltaSet)
    {
        if (deltaSet == null)
        {
            return BadRequest();
        }

        return Ok();
    }
}
