Storage: upload_* does not send properties (need an extra patch)

[sagarrakshe]

Not able to set cache-control while uploading blobs. I tried this.

foo_blob = bucket.blob('sample.txt')
foo_blob.cache_control = 3600
foo_blob.content_type = 'text/plain'
foo_blob.upload_from_string('Sample Text')

But after uploading the property foo_blob.cache_control gets set to None again.

@sagarrakshe This is actually a bug in upload_from_string. For now, you'll want to call foo_blob.patch() after uploading to actually patch the properties. We're hoping to address it soon now that @tseaver has brought in gcloud.streaming.

Just realized this already exists as #1185. @sagarrakshe Please subscribe to that issue to follow progress on a fix.
