Directly identify a user

Link a **known Dynamo (D10x) user id** to your platform user id — no deep link involved. Unlike `/v1.0/user/identify` (which resolves the user from a `d10xLinkId`), this takes the Dynamo user id directly and **force-overrides**: if your `userId` is already mapped to a different Dynamo user and the two can't be merged, the old mapping is removed and the user is re-identified with this one. Single object only — no `batch` form.
