"""Tests for automatic HEAD method support on GET routes.

RFC 7231 §4.3.2 states that the server SHOULD send the same header fields
in response to a HEAD request as it would have sent if the request had been
a GET.  FastAPI now automatically handles HEAD requests for all GET routes
without adding HEAD to the OpenAPI schema.
