Decide a hiring manager step

Required scopes: tasks:write, applications:read

Records or changes the hiring manager decision on the candidate's latest step that waits on the hiring manager. advance moves the candidate on; hold keeps them where they are. The job's hiring manager or a recruiter on the job may decide; anyone else gets 403 application_decision_forbidden. Pass interview_id to name the step; without it the latest waiting step is used. send_to_recruiter: true also sends the note to the recruiter. The response is the decision read shape after the write.
