Create Warehouse - Plugixa Inventory

POST /plugixa-inventory/v1/warehouses

Create a warehouse: any place stock is kept.

The user needs the plugixa_inventory_create capability (administrators have every inventory capability). With Pro Roles and permissions enforcing, their role must also allow creating warehouses.
