Create a new epic (referred to externally as a “Project”) in a workspace (team_id).
Specify essential properties such as the title, list ID (status), and optional fields
like icon, content, due date, priority, and owner.
Customize the epic’s icon and assign roles to team members.
This endpoint enables breaking down projects into smaller tasks (cards) for more
effective planning and progress tracking.
