Cannot update any product/variant attribute on latest API version

[jeffblake]

For a simple update like this:

    api_variant = ShopifyAPI::Variant.find(shopify_variant.identifier)
    api_variant.price = correct_price
    api_variant.save!

I receive error:

Failed. Response code = 400. Response message = Bad Request.: {"error":"Write requests to inventory_quantity and inventory_quantity_adjustment are no longer supported. Please use the Inventory Levels API."}

On API version 2019-10

Same issue as Shopify/shopify_python_api#347 both have the same issue. This will hopefully be fixed soon

FYI, to get around this in ruby:

variant.attributes.delete(:inventory_quantity)
variant.attributes.delete(:old_inventory_quantity)

See https://community.shopify.com/c/Shopify-APIs-SDKs/400-BadRequest-on-variant-save/m-p/602230/highlight/true#M40797

Note that when you save after deleting, those attributes come back again so need to be deleted again before another save...

We also did a workaround.

I just changed the call to use 2019-07, all works for now. 2019-10, 2020-01 does not, the world is closed so we need the site working..... and 2019-07 ends April 1st
