Send an RCS message via Twilio

Posts a message to the Twilio Messages API through a Messaging Service that has an RCS sender, using Account SID and Auth Token for basic authentication. Twilio falls back to SMS when the recipient's device or carrier does not support RCS, so the same task covers both cases without extra configuration. Set body for a plain text message, contentSid to send a rich RCS content template, or both. Returns the Twilio message SID and delivery status from the API response. See the Twilio RCS documentation for details.
