//  First we want to initiate the resumable upload.
//  We send a POST to get a session URI, which will be used to upload the file, and resume if needed.

//  Our POST will look like this:

//  POST https://www.googleapis.com/upload/drive/v3/files?uploadType=resumable HTTP/1.1
//  Authorization: Bearer [YOUR_AUTH_TOKEN]          <-- Chilkat automatically adds this header because the AuthToken property was set.
//  Content-Length: 38                               <-- Chilkat will automatically add this header.
//  Content-Type: application/json; charset=UTF-8    <-- This is the type of this POST, and is specified in the call to HttpJson.
//  X-Upload-Content-Type: application/zip           <-- The type of file we'll be uploading
//  X-Upload-Content-Length: 1366807                 <-- The size of the file we'll be uploading
//  
//  {
//    "name": "myObject"
