Upgrade your hosting account to a higher plan

Upgrade your existing hosting account to a higher plan level, for example, from 'Start' to 'Business'. This call requires the `accountId` from a previous retrieval of your hosting accounts (e.g., via GET /api/hosting-accounts). After the upgrade, an `invoiceId` is returned that you can use to pay the invoice.
