A new `proxy`, `country` or `ip`: the number reconnects through it once its exit IP checks out. A number held by its proxy is let go.
Reconnect a WhatsApp number POST
A number still linked (connected, reconnecting or paused) is reconnected on its login and never relinked: 201 `AccountReconnected` (a paused one is resumed). Only a number whose link is gone gets a new `Checkpoint` to scan; `proxy` or `country` here moves it first. 503 while its proxy holds it (use `/recover`).
