feat: add update_employee operation to EmployeeAPI

[joamag]

Adds support for updating an employee through the EmployeeAPI client, mirroring the existing update_* operations (update_person, update_entity, update_merchandise).

Changes

• update_employee(object_id, payload) in EmployeeAPI, posting the payload to omni/employees/<id>/update.json.
• Matching type stub update_employee(self, object_id: int, payload: EmployeeDelta) -> Employee, mirroring the update_person stub.
• CHANGELOG entry under the unreleased Added section.

The backend route is POST omni/employees/<id>/update, guarded by the foundation.employee.update permission.

Context

Required by the update_employee MCP tool in omni-mcp (hivesolutions/omni-mcp#12), which delegates to this client.

Review limit reached

@joamag, we couldn't start this review because you've reached your PR review rate limit.

More reviews will be available in 43 minutes and 38 seconds. Learn how PR review limits work.

Your organization has used up its prepaid credits, and credit purchases are no longer available. Enable the review add-on in the billing tab to keep reviews running — you're only billed for reviews past your plan's rate limits ($0.25/file).

⌛ How to resolve this issue?

After more reviews become available, a review can be triggered using the @coderabbitai review command as a PR comment. Alternatively, push new commits to this PR.

To avoid repeated limits, reduce automatic review volume by pausing incremental auto-reviews earlier, using label-based review opt-in, excluding WIP or generated PR titles, or requesting reviews manually when the PR is ready. If your team needs uninterrupted high-volume reviews, an organization admin can enable usage-based credits.

🚦 How do rate limits work?

CodeRabbit enforces per-developer PR review limits for each organization. Most developers receive the normal plan review availability.

For paid Pro and Pro+ PR reviews, CodeRabbit uses adaptive limits for sustained high-volume activity. When a developer's recent PR review activity reaches the 95th percentile or higher among CodeRabbit users, additional reviews become available more gradually as earlier reviews age out of the rolling window.

Please see our Fair Usage Limits Policy for further information.

Walkthrough

EmployeeAPI now declares and implements update_employee, which posts a payload to the employee update endpoint and returns the response contents. The changelog also records support for the new operation.

Poem

A rabbit hopped by with a cheerful little grin,
“Update the employee, let the change begin!”
With stub and endpoint all snug in a row,
The bunny says, “Ship it — let the payload flow!” 🐇
