MockServer is rejecting ServerSideApply operation making it impossible to test

[AbdelrhmanHamouda]

Describe the bug

Hello,

In my code I have this job = client.batch().v1().jobs().inNamespace(namespace).resource(job).forceConflicts().serverSideApply();

And in my test, I use junt5 and use the @EnableKubernetesMockClient(https = false, crud = true)

When I run the test, I see the following message from the mock server and the test fails

Jul 26, 2023 4:14:54 PM okhttp3.mockwebserver.MockWebServer$3 processOneRequest
INFO: MockWebServer[56771] received request: PATCH /apis/batch/v1/namespaces/default/jobs/team-perftest-master?fieldManager=fabric8&force=true HTTP/1.1 and responded: HTTP/1.1 404 Client Error

I didn't have force at the start, but even when I added it, it is still not working.

Side note: I tested this with a small minikube cluster and ServerSideApply works without an issue.

Fabric8 Kubernetes Client version

Could this be duplicate of https://github.com/fabric8io/kubernetes-client/issues/5337 ?
