Applies a partial update to a section, accepting the drip fields that match the course type.

Beyond title and status, a scheduled course also accepts scheduled_at and a structured course accepts reactions_count, which stores the drip delay in days. The two are mutually exclusive: setting a schedule clears the delay and vice versa. Changing either fires its own hook so drip notifications can be rescheduled.
