Add Forwarding Rules to a Load Balancer

To add an additional forwarding rule to a load balancer instance, send a POST request to /v2/load_balancers/$LOAD_BALANCER_ID/forwarding_rules. In the body of the request, there should be a forwarding_rules attribute containing an array of rules to be added.

No response body will be sent back, but the response code will indicate success. Specifically, the response code will be a 204, which means that the action was successful with no returned body data.
