Recalculate all estimates for a project component

Recalculates time estimates for all items (epics and non-epics) within a project component. This includes:

Recalculating individual item estimates based on timeFrame and question multipliers/extra hours
Recalculating epic estimates by summing their children’s estimates
Updating the component’s totalTimeFrame
Respecting visibility conditions (items with invalid conditions are excluded)

Items are processed bottom-up (children first, then parents) to ensure accurate calculations. Only components that belong to the specified project can be recalculated through this endpoint.
