Partially updates an organization. Only the fields you provide will be updated; all other fields remain unchanged. This is the recommended way to update organizations when you only need to change specific fields.

**When to use:**
Use this endpoint for partial updates (changing only specific fields). For full updates (replacing all fields), use PUT /organizations/:id instead.

**Available fields:**
All organization fields can be updated, including:
- Basic info: name, shortName, icon, type, color, legalForm, description
- Contact details: address fields, phone, fax, email, website
- Legal info: taxNumber, registrationNumber, registrationCourt
- Business: startOfCollaboration, isActive (via full update)
- Invoice settings: hourRate, invoiceDueDays, reminder fees, interest rates, invoiceLanguage
- Document settings: table of contents, title page, heading style, default contact

- Custom data: `customFields`, keyed by configured organization custom-field IDs; values must match each definition type and do not create native relationships or behavior

**Updating the logo:**
1. Call POST /api/public/workspace/upload to upload the new logo file
2. Use the returned file ID in the logoId field
3. To remove the logo, set logoId to null

**Behavior:**
- Omitted fields remain unchanged
- Provided fields replace existing values
- Set fields to null to clear them (where allowed)
- Date fields should be provided in ISO format (YYYY-MM-DD)

**What is returned:**
The complete updated organization object with all fields and computed values.

**Note:** This endpoint requires the Organizations.edit permission. The organization must exist in your workspace and not be deleted.
