Resize a Database Cluster

To resize a database cluster, send a PUT request to /v2/databases/$DATABASE_ID/resize. The body of the request must specify both the size and num_nodes attributes. A successful request will receive a 202 Accepted status code with no body in response. Querying the database cluster will show that its status attribute will now be set to resizing.
