Assign an agent to a zone by hand

PUT/api/public/v1/agents/{agent_id}/zone

Sets zone_override_id, so directory sync stops moving this agent — exactly as ownership already behaves once set by hand. An unknown or retired zone answers 422, not 404: the AGENT exists, the body's zone_id is what is unacceptable.
