[sdk-platform-java] Determine if HttpJson should allow null response back

Check if this is the correct flow for GAX HttpJson:

Currently, a null response will treated as a server error. This may be because we are REST over gRPC and gRPC requires a response in the payload.

The REST world does allow for a null response:

We should investigate and determine if this is intended/ how we want to keep it.
