Nora f25214189a feat(sp35): /api/parse-837 envelope + empty-claims guards
Server-side defense in depth for misroute ingest. Before SP35, posting
an 835 file (or any other X12 with a parseable ISA envelope) to
/api/parse-837 silently produced a BatchRecord with claims=[] and a
bogus row on the History tab. The 837 parser only required an ISA
envelope; it didn't check the ST transaction-set id.

Two new guards run before persistence:

1. Envelope check: tokenize first, read ST01, reject anything that
   doesn't start with '837'. 400 with error='Mismatched file kind',
   expected='837p', detected_st=<actual>. Catches an 835/999/270/etc
   routed to the wrong endpoint.
2. Empty-claims check: even with the right envelope, if the parser
   produces zero CLM segments, return 400 'No claims parsed' and do
   NOT persist.

New tests in tests/test_api.py:
- test_parse_837_endpoint_rejects_835_input (was failing, now green)
- test_parse_837_endpoint_rejects_empty_envelope (was failing, now green)
- test_parse_837_endpoint_happy_path_still_works (regression guard)

Helper _transaction_set_id_from_segments reused by the 835 mirror.
