[occi-wg] Edgy Resource Attributes during Creation

[Ralf Nyren]

It depends on the multiplicity of the attributes (see e.g. OCCI
Infrastructure).

If an attribute is mutable and has a multiplicity greater than zero the
client is supposed to supply it. If the client doesn't the OCCI server
should return a Bad Request.

On the other hand if the multiplicity is 0..x it is considered optional
and it is up to the OCCI server to provide a sensible default.
