Unable to patch custom object with CustomObjectsApi.patchNamespacedCustomObject #3106

Describe the bug
Hello,

I'm trying to patch a custom resource following this official example:
https://github.com/kubernetes-client/java/blob/master/kubernetes/docs/CustomObjectsApi.md#patchNamespacedCustomObject

Object result = apiInstance.patchNamespacedCustomObject(group, version, namespace, plural, name, body).execute();

No matter what I specify in the body param (json patch string, yaml patch, a Map with CRD attributes), the result is always an HTTP 415 error response from the server:

{"kind":"Status","apiVersion":"v1","metadata":{},"status":"Failure","message":"the body of the request was in an unknown format - accepted media types include: application/json-patch+json, application/merge-patch+json, application/apply-patch+yaml","reason":"UnsupportedMediaType","code":415}

Java client Version
20.0.0

Kubernetes Version
1.28

Java Version
Corretto-21.0.2

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

CustomObjectsApi apiInstance = new CustomObjectsApi(defaultClient);
...
String body = "[\n" +
      "  {\n" +
      "    \"op\": \"add\",\n" +
      "    \"path\": \"/metadata/annotations/new-annotation\",\n" +
      "    \"value\": \"value of the new annotation\"\n" +
      "  }\n" +
      "]";
Object result = apiInstance.patchNamespacedCustomObject(group, version, namespace, plural, name, body).execute();

Results in:

Expected behavior
The expectation is that the above code would modify the CRD.

Using PatchUtils doesn't seem an alternative for custom resources since the class to be patched (which would be Object for a CRD) must be supplied:

public static <ApiType> ApiType patch(Class<ApiType> apiTypeClass, PatchCallFunc callFunc, String patchFormat, ApiClient apiClient) throws ApiException {
