This patch removes the use of utils.purge since it is no
longer needed in light of Falcon's relatively new "store"
feature, which causes the target dict to only receive the
value of the param if it is found in the request, thus
avoiding clobbering default kwarg values, which was the
original intent of utils.purge.
As a bonus, this approach is also ~40% faster.
