Starts asynchronous cancellation on a long-running operation. The server makes a best effort to cancel the operation, but success is not guaranteed. If the server doesn't support this method, it returns google.rpc.Code.UNIMPLEMENTED. Clients can use Operations.GetOperation or other methods to check whether the cancellation succeeded or whether the operation completed despite cancellation. On successful cancellation, the operation is not deleted; instead, it becomes an operation with an Operation.error value with a google.rpc.Status.code of 1, corresponding to Code.CANCELLED.

The core action is sending a `POST` request to a specific URL, defined by a path parameter `name`, indicating the operation to cancel. The request body must be empty. A successful cancellation results in an empty JSON object response, and the operation's error code is set to `1` (`Code.CANCELLED`).
