Update Cost Center

Updates the name of an existing cost center. Use this endpoint to fix typos or reflect an internal reorganization — for example, renaming "Marketing" to "Digital Marketing".

Rules:

The name field is required and cannot be empty.
Cannot update to a name already used by another cost center in the company.
Returns 404 if the cost center is not found.
