Update a shift swap

patch/v1/shift-swaps/{id}

Changes the fields you send and returns the updated shift swap. Send null to clear an optional field. Available to keys belonging to office staff and caregivers. With a caregiver's or patient's key, a saved record that key cannot read back is answered with only object and id. Requires a key with write scope.
