Pause a filing

Pause a filing. Requires an ADMIN or OWNER credential; send an `Organization-Id`, `Connection-Id` or `Entity-Id` selector to say which organization it belongs to. `pauseIntent` says why: `review` auto-resumes on `pausedUntilDate` (which is then required), `assistance` pauses indefinitely for manual help, and `skip` skips the period.

Returns 404 if the filing does not exist or belongs to an organization your credential cannot access, and 400 if the filing cannot be paused in its current state or the request is invalid for the chosen intent.
