Resets the temporary strong password for the specified user, generating a new server-side password and resetting the credential state to initial.

The operation will fail if the reset count has reached the maximum allowed by the configured PUK policy.

Depending on the policy configuration, the response may contain a tempStrongPassword field holding the new plaintext password fragment for out-of-band delivery to the user. If the policy does not expose the fragment, 204 No Content is returned instead of a response body.

In self-admin mode, a valid JWT token must be provided in the X-Token request header.
