Create a contact from the LinkedIn profile a reviewer chose

For a row still waiting on a profile: one the sourcing agent left as needs_review, or one that failed — a failed row keeps its shortlist and the profile that was picked, so the same choice can be sent again without paying for a fresh search. Where the search found nobody, this is also how a reviewer supplies a profile by hand. The scrape is queued on the same paced batch a confident match uses, because it spends a real account's cookie, so the answer arrives on the article page rather than in this response.
