Model.destoy should allow to set a body

[fabianfrz]

A delete request may have a body containing some meta data like who deletes the resource and why. This information is usually not required for the delete process itself but may be required for the process (usually documentation purposes).

For example:

model.destroy({
    data: {
       reason: "Deleted due to GDPR delete request"
   }
});

DELETE /resouces/1 HTTP/1.0
Host: example.com
Content-Type: application/json
Content-Length: xxx

{
  "reason": "Deleted due to GDPR delete request"
}

This is the current API for backbone. Granted you may need to JSON.stringify data and/or set your contentType, but doing exactly what you're doing in the code above works in backbone.

Thanks, I will think if I will document that in the Backbone.sync section.
