    # Return a response that has no content (merely headers). The options
    # argument is interpreted to be a hash of header names and values.
    # This allows you to easily return a response that consists only of
    # significant headers:
    #
    #   head :created, :location => person_path(@person)
    #
    #   head :created, :location => @person
    #
    # It can also be used to return exceptional conditions:
    #
    #   return head(:method_not_allowed) unless request.post?
    #   return head(:bad_request) unless valid_request?
    #   render
