[midPoint] Error when updating task via REST call

[Pavol Mederly]

Hello Ana,

yes, tasks are a bit different in this respect. (Partly caused by the 
fact that there can be more tasks with the same name; this is not 
possible for majority of other object types.)

There are three possible solutions:

 1. update the task by executing "modify" (REST POST) operation instead
    of "overwrite" (REST PUT) operation;
 2. keep using REST PUT, but delete the task beforehand;
 3. file a JIRA request to fix this bug (but I cannot guarantee it will
    be done quickly).

Best regards,
