    An implementing class can either provide its own custom 'register' method,
    or use the automatic pattern handling provided by the base class.

    To use this latter, the implementing class instead provides a `PATTERN`
    class attribute containing a pre-compiled regular expression. The automatic
    register method will then use this method to register any of the following
    instance methods associated with the corresponding HTTP method:

      on_GET
      on_PUT
      on_POST
      on_DELETE
      on_OPTIONS

    Automatically handles turning CodeMessageExceptions thrown by these methods
    into the appropriate HTTP response.
