Resync data source

Trigger a re-sync of an existing link-based knowledge base data source. This will queue the source for re-crawling so the AI Agent picks up the latest content from the URL.

Note: Re-syncing is only supported for link-type sources. Text sources can be updated by deleting and re-adding them.
