List Instagram profile highlights

List story highlight albums for an Instagram profile.

Use `data.lookupStatus` for the domain outcome; call `GET /v1/instagram/profiles/{handle}` when you need full profile cards and related fields.

When `lookupStatus` is `found`, an empty `data.highlights` list can mean the profile has no visible story highlight albums. When `lookupStatus` is `not_found`, highlights will be empty by design.
