ZIP deployment instructions are missing required Content-Type when WEBSITE_RUN_FROM_PACKAGE=1

[cbodin]

POST:ing to /api/zipdeploy with a .zip file as per the documentation on an Azure Web App Linux with WEBSITE_RUN_FROM_PACKAGE=1 causes a 500 Internal Server error. https://github.com/projectkudu/kudu/wiki/REST-API#zip-deployment https://github.com/projectkudu/kudu/wiki/Deploying-from-a-zip-file-or-url

The azure-cli sets a Content-Type: application/octet-stream header when performing the zip deploy resulting in a successful deploy. https://github.com/Azure/azure-cli/blob/b88d627d0d681d97639df452c47266a31ed6f3b0/src/azure-cli/azure/cli/command_modules/appservice/custom.py#L595-L600C74

Proposed changes to the wiki on both of those pages:

curl -X POST \
     -H "Content-Type: application/octet-stream" \
     -u '<username>:<password>' \
     -T "<zip-package-path>" \
     "https://<app-name>.scm.azurewebsites.net/api/zipdeploy"

curl -X PUT \
     -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
     -u '<username>:<password>' \
     -d '{"packageUri": "<zipUrl>"}' \
     "https://<app-name>.scm.azurewebsites.net/api/zipdeploy"

I've also opened an issue to get this fixed in the azure-docs repo: https://github.com/MicrosoftDocs/azure-docs/pull/111803
