Reauthorize a Connection

Issue a fresh hosted connect_url for the same interactive Connection identity when a provider grant lapses, returning the Connection, the URL, and its expiry. Requires expected_version in the body and accepts an Idempotency-Key. It rotates the pending custody authorization correlation and retires the prior one, so an in-flight authorization attempt for this Connection is superseded rather than resumed. Deployment-held mTLS reconnects through the Principal hosted-setup operation and is deliberately rejected here because it has no interactive URL.

Checkfu support posture: alpha; hosted. Required evidence journey: connection-lifecycle. Deployment-specific readiness and the latest proven release are available from GET /v1/support/capabilities.
