Update envelope

Updates the details of an existing envelope, such as adding or removing documents, modifying signers, or changing other associated metadata. Be aware that modifications to documents will not be allowed if any signer has already approved the envelope, nor will you be able to change signers who have already approved the envelope. The updated envelope will retain its unique identifier, and changes can be tracked in subsequent operations. Ensure the provided envelope ID exists and the request contains the necessary changes.
