### Describe the issue

I set `axios.defaults.headers.common['Content-Type'] = 'application/json'`. When firing a `axios.patch` request (without a config), the request uses `application/x-www-form-urlencoded` instead.

### Example Code

```js
// This does not work as expected:
axios.defaults.headers.common['Content-Type'] = 'application/json'

// This does:
axios.defaults.headers.common['Content-Type'] = 'application/json'
axios.defaults.headers.patch['Content-Type'] = 'application/json'
```


### Expected behavior

I expected POST requests to use `axios.defaults.headers.common`, too.

I think this is where the problem (or intended behaviour) comes from: https://github.com/axios/axios/blob/3f53eb6960f05a1f88409c4b731a40de595cb825/lib/core/dispatchRequest.js#L46
