Fix 'merge' in ws.py

[chrda81]

Response message "Method not found" is received with error_code "SurrealPermissionException", so I guess the method="change" is obsolete.

~~I encountered the same problem when using Surreal.patch. Would you mind checking all methods, and extending this fix for them all?~~ ~~I guess same PR is fine :shrug:~~

I see now that the whole patch method is wrong, and more changes are needed than just changing the method name. I will create separate issue/PR - apologies for the spam

any updates on this? i'm getting surrealdb.ws.SurrealPermissionException: Method not found for .merge and it's been outstanding issue for the python SDK for years.

Still not done. Neither patch method seems to be found.
