Update a contact

PUT
/api/nova/contacts/{contactId}

Updates an existing contact identified by its ID. This is a partial update: only the fields supplied in the request body overwrite the current values, and omitted fields are left unchanged. Supported fields match the create endpoint, including name, contact details, companyId, secondaryCompanyId, ownerId, tags, social links, dateOfBirth, description, internalNotes, skills, statusId, sourceId and customFields. Returns 404 if the contact does not exist, otherwise the response contains the updated contact's ID.
