Status code 400 is returned if body is missing on note creation.

If a note is created with a POST request via API (`/projects/:id/notes`) status
code 400 is returned instead of 404. The resource itself exists but the request
is incomplete. Specs added to check different status codes when accessing, creating
and updating notes.
