A patch: omitted fields are left alone, so sending `{"contactPhone": "+44 117 496 0000"}` changes nothing else.
Pass `null` to clear a contact field.

**Errors**

- `409 default_supplier_immutable` — the hidden Default supplier can't be edited.
- `409 supplier_name_taken` — the new name belongs to another supplier on the tenant.
- `422 supplier_name_required` — `name` present but blank.
- `404 supplier_not_found` — unknown, archived, or another tenant's.
