Change VPS resource options

Preview or commit configurable-option changes for one VPS without changing its plan. Get {id} from GET /api/v2/vps data[].id. First call GET /api/v2/vps/{id}/actions/upgrade and read configurableOptions[].key, limits, constraints, and action gates. Send canonical option keys under resources, for example { "bandwidthGb": 4096 } to add bandwidth only or { "snapshotSlots": 3 } to buy/increase snapshot capacity when the option is returned. billingCycle is allowed only with dryRun: true; committed billing-cycle changes belong to /actions/billing-cycle.
