      If a client sends an Accept header requesting JSON with a specific odata.metadata level, the service responds with that level.

      If a client sends a request with OData-Version or OData-MaxVersion and does not specify an odata.metadata level, the service responds with odata.metadata=minimal.

      If a client sends a request and does not specify OData-Version or OData-MaxVersion and does not specify an odata.metadata level, the service may respond with any format matching the Accept header, e.g. for application/json any JSON dialect, including OData JSON of the odata.metadata level preferred by that service.

      We want simple rest services to support OData for interoperability without taxing them for non-interoperability requirements.

      The easiest way to do this is to allow no-metadata for non-odata clients.

      We can determine if the client is odata by:
      -Odata.maxversion header
      -Odata.version header
      -Odata media type parameters
