Description
If I call req:param() then req:json() will fail subsequently, because it won't be able to read the request body using req:read(), because req:read() is not reentrant.
Request body should be cached somewhere. At least if content-type is application/json

Research direction
Start by tracing req:param(), req:json(), and req:read() to understand why reading the request body is not reentrant. Check how application/json requests are handled, then verify that calling req:param() followed by req:json() can read the body successfully without changing behavior for other request types.
