Reset Api Balance

Reset the user’s API wallet to their tier baseline and close all open API positions.

Tier-aware reset:

Pro grant → $10,000
Pro+ grant → $25,000
Enterprise → $10,000 (admin-only tier, Pro-equivalent baseline)
No grant / Free / unknown tier → $10,000 fallback (preserves the legacy behaviour for users with a key but no active grant — e.g., lapsed beta members)

The baseline is resolved from the plan’s feature matrix, so a plan config edit propagates here automatically.

Accepts both X-API-Key and Authorization: Bearer <jwt> auth so the website’s API-keys dashboard can trigger a reset via the cookie session, AND an API client can self-reset programmatically (the bot use case — “give me a clean wallet so the next strategy backtest starts fresh”). The wallet that gets reset is always the API wallet regardless of auth source — JWT-auth from the UI does NOT touch the MAIN wallet.

Enforces a cooldown period defined by the API_RESET_COOLDOWN_DAYS environment variable (default 0 = no cooldown during beta).
