Refresh the index for a file

`POST /knowledgeSource/filesConnector/{id}/refreshIndex`

Forces Cortex to re-embed the file's current text without re-parsing the original binary. Preserves manual Markdown edits. Bumps modifiedAt unconditionally and fires knowledgeSourceChanged action=update. Use this when the AI search seems stale or after an embedding-model change; use reindex to discard manual edits and re-parse the original.
