Update Vehicle Model - Plugixa Car Rental

PUT /plugixa-car-rental/v1/vehicle-models/{id}

Change a vehicle model. Only the fields you send are changed; PATCH works the same way.

The user needs the plugixa_car_rental_edit capability.

Note. Unpublishing a model takes it off the booking form and out of staff searches at once. Bookings already made on it are kept.
