Edit LinkedIn Message

Edit the text of a message you previously sent on LinkedIn, replacing its content in place (up to 8000 characters). Works only for messages you authored and requires the message_id from get_messages, failing with 'not found' if the ID is invalid or does not belong to you. Edits count toward your daily edit limit. Use it to fix a typo or refine wording without deleting and resending.
