putSaver: detect edit conflicts to prevent clobbering, if possible

Browse Source 
if the server supplies an ETag, we send it back when saving, allowing
the server to detect edit conflicts and respond with 412 (cf.
https://www.w3.org/1999/04/Editing/)

caveats:
* this only kicks in after the first save, as we don't have access to
  the ETag when first loading the document
* there's no recovery mechanism (e.g. resetting `this.etag` in order to
  force clobbering), other than manually reloading the document
