Subject: [PATCH] test(observability-proxy): preserve JSON seed request bodies

Send JSON seeds with their content type so VictoriaLogs does not consume
log records while parsing form parameters before ingestion.

Fixes: ebb5a9cec4f6 ("test(observability-proxy): cover the namespace logs scope end to end")
Assisted-by: LLM
