Rate limit applied to List Companies API

To ensure our platform remains stable when receiving an atypically high volume of external requests, we added a rate limit to the List Companies API, defined as a maximum threshold of 5 requests per second with a total bucket size of 20 requests. The API will respond with HTTP 429 when the rate limit has been exceeded.

Our rate limiting uses a leaky bucket algorithm, which allows client applications to make an unlimited number of requests over a large time horizon but prevents excessively large bursts over a very short period of time.
