Clear a REST Response Body Stream Destination

Demonstrates Rest.ClearResponseBodyStream, which removes a response-stream destination previously configured with SetResponseBodyStream.

The file paths are relative to the application's current working directory. Absolute paths may also be used. Supply the paths appropriate to your own environment.

Background. Clearing the destination restores normal behavior, in which the full-request convenience methods return the response body rather than streaming it.
