Restart a browser profile ​

Version overview
POST
/api/v1/browsers/restart

After validating the current user and team ownership, gracefully close the active browser and start it again. url, window_state, and headless behave as they do in the start endpoint. window_state=last restores the window dimensions from the previous session. Inactive profiles return 40903. In a successful response, reused is always false.
