Create a customer.

Counts against the plan's customer limit — a full account answers `402` with
`code: plan_limit_exceeded` rather than silently discarding the record.

Creating a customer fires the Studio *customer changed* trigger and writes a
journey event, exactly as the console does, so automations react to API-created
records the same way.
