Issue Summary

Requesting /rest/api/space with ?start parameter does not have the correct behavior

Steps to Reproduce

1. Call the REST API: <BASE_URL>/rest/api/space?limit=1&start=xxxx
2. Make sure that the value for the start parameter is greater than the total count in Confluence.

Expected Results

There is no result returned

Actual Results

The record for a space is returned

 curl --location '<Base URL>/rest/api/space?limit=1&start=1400' \
--header 'Authorization: Basic xxxxxxxx' \
--header 'Cookie: JSESSIONID=xxxxxxxx' | jq -r '.results | length'
