> When a user provides invalid JSON to the /update endpoint, the request fails with a 500 (INTERNAL SERVER ERROR).  If the user looks at the response body, they'll see a message indicating that the provided JSON was invalid.  However, going from the status code alone, the failure is indistinguishable from a true server-error.  This is a bit misleading.  It would be nice if Solr instead returned a 400 (BAD REQUEST) status code when it detects invalid arguments.
> Reproduction Steps:
> 1.) bin/solr start -e cloud -noprompt
> 2.) curl -i -l -k -X POST -H 'Content-Type: application/json' 'http://localhost:8983/solr/gettingstarted/update' --data-binary '}{'
