addBidCostLine

Requires permission biddesk:cost_sheet:edit.

Adds a sheet-level line (labour, freight, commissioning, an extra item, …) to a draft cost sheet. Refused with COST_SHEET_LOCKED once submitted, COST_LINE_INVALID listing each bad field, VERSION_CONFLICT when someone changed the sheet first. Writing a unit cost, evidence or a manual reason needs permission to view costs. Requires Bid Desk and permission to edit cost sheets.

Errors: a failed call returns a GraphQL errors entry, not a field on the result, and data may be null or partial. Read the entry's extensions.code and message; every shape and code is in the Error reference.
