External APICommunityScheduled posts

Update a scheduled post

Update fields on a scheduled / draft post — all fields are optional. `status` may only be set to `DRAFT` here (the `REJECTED → DRAFT` creator iteration); all other transitions go through the dedicated lifecycle endpoints. Channel and superpower validation matches create.

Beta
