NEW ISSUE -- Spell out failure behavior for updates

Section 5.4.1 of the spec discusses what happens in case of a successful update but does not
discuss what happens if the update fails.

Updates can fail for a number of reseasons:

1. Server failure -- out of memory, lost power, etc.  May be hard to get any response.
2. Bad data -- unreadable, fails schema validation
3. Rejected because of application constraints.

3. is the case where we discussed the new 208.5 return code.  A new return code for 2 may also
be useful.
