Description

The artifact bundling uses PUT with the logical id of the artifact for canonical resources. This causes problems when multiple versions of the same artifact are loaded in the same server. Guidance in CRMI packaging is to use a conditional create:

https://hl7.org/fhir/uv/crmi/packaging.html#fhir-bundle

We should update the artifact bundling logic to use this approach for all canonical resources.

Note that the documentation there as published has an error, the header is If-None-Exist, not ifNotExist as given in the example.

Research direction

Start by locating the artifact bundling logic in the Java tooling and read the CRMI packaging guidance linked in the issue. Update bundling for all canonical resources to use conditional create with the If-None-Exist header, then verify that multiple versions of one artifact can load into the same server without collision.
