Sandbox counterpart of POST /entity/kyc/import/sync, for clients who cannot yet mint a Sumsub share token. Creates (or reuses) the entity for externalId and drives it straight to the chosen verdict, firing the same card_issuance_api_access_updated webhook the real ingestion fires.

Entity creation and the requirement/webhook write are the real ingestion path's own code, so a simulated entity is indistinguishable from an ingested one. Only the Sumsub call is replaced — level enforcement, the country condition checks and applicant-data validation are therefore not exercised, since here the verdict is the input rather than something derived from applicant data.

Re-posting the same externalId reuses the entity and appends a new requirement, exactly as a repeat real ingestion would, so there is nothing to reset between runs. Sandbox environments only.
