Three forms: a direct message with its own content; a reply in a thread (`thread_id` and a
body), sent from the thread's identity to the sender of its latest inbound message unless `to`
says otherwise; or a campaign step's content (`step_id` or `variant_id`) for people who are not
enrolled, with `person_id` (and `to` to preview that person's version at another address) or
up to 100 `person_ids`, answered per person.

`POST /v1/messages`
