Revert File Version

Make the content of a version current again by writing it as a new revert version, so the revert can itself be reverted. Open editors receive the change. Reverting to the current version writes nothing and returns reverted: false. A concurrent write, or an expectedCurrentVersion that is no longer current, returns 409; a version above 100 MB returns 413.

OAuth scope: api:write.
