Description

Currently, the runtime will throw an IllegalArgumentException (and thus a 500 response code) if an ETag (in the form of an If-Match or If-None-Match header value) with no quotes is passed to the server. If the ETag has a single quote at the front, or a single quote at the back, but is not fully wrapped, we'll get a 412 response code. I know this is very nit-picky, but I'd like to see consistency here.

Current behavior:
"etag" --> success
"etag --> 412
etag" --> 412
etag --> 500

Desired behavior is for that 500 to be a 412. Please see patch, which has tests and fix.
