Exception message: Invalid HTTP method name: PROPFIND

It seems httpclient has gotten stricter recently and doesn't allow custom HTTP methods to be passed

Thanks @ire4ever1190, sorry for the late reply. Yeah, it seems this change was part of a collection of improvements on Httpcore nim-lang/Nim#15919 introduced in 1.5! I just asked on the Nim forum what would be the recommended course of action.

I've opened a PR towards Nim to include webdav defined HTTP Methods nim-lang/Nim#19366 so hopefully it'll be addressed at some point. I'm not exactly sure what would be the best way to handle the failing packages test (specifically Jester https://github.com/dom96/jester, potentially another PR is required over there to not fail on untested HTTP methods defined under that enum)
