Request a SIM card enable

POST 
/sim_cards/:id/actions/enable

This API enables a SIM card, connecting it to the network and making it possible to consume data.
To enable a SIM card, it must be associated with a SIM card group.
The API will trigger an asynchronous operation called a SIM Card Action. Transitioning to the enabled state may take a period of time. The status of the SIM Card Action can be followed through the List SIM Card Action API.
