The difference is that to upload to the station registry, V5 uses an HTTP
POST with a serialized JSON payload, while V4 uses an HTTP GET. The GET
sent an "unbound method" to the registry as a query parameter. We get a lot
of those, so I included a bit of code to salvage the hardware type from the
"unbound method" parameter. Hence, no one noticed.
