Description

When I POST an empty update to my account URL I get this:

{
    "id": 5337306,
    "key": {
        "kty": "RSA",
        "n": "<redacted>",
        "e": "AQAB"
    },
    "contact": [
        "mailto:<redacted>"
    ],
    "agreement": "https://letsencrypt.org/documents/LE-SA-v1.2-November-15-2017.pdf",
    "initialIp": "<redacted>",
    "createdAt": "2018-01-05T01:29:21Z",
    "status": "valid"
}

There is no orders field as required by https://ietf-wg-acme.github.io/acme/draft-ietf-acme-acme.html#rfc.section.7.1.2

Research direction

Start at the account URL handler for an empty POST and inspect how the account information response is serialized. Compare the response with ACME section 7.1.2; done means the required orders field is included in the returned account information.
