The API's VM actions call the web views and only looked at the status
code; the views report a partial result (a disk that was not deleted or
was kept, a template that was not started) as a message for the page
they redirect to. The API reported plain success and left the messages in
the session. Its answer now carries them in "messages".
- Routers use path converters (use_regex_path=False): computes, instances
and flavors take <int:...> ids, so non-numeric ids get 404 and
drf-spectacular derives the parameter types itself.
- Each method declares what it really returns: detail serializers,
a shared StatusSerializer for status-only replies, no request body for
actions. Instance properties used by the details serializer get return
type hints.
- The create-instance API drops the firmware field. Its only accepted
value was "" (BIOS), which produced an empty, invalid enum, and the
UEFI branch behind it was unreachable. Clients that still send it are
unaffected; DRF ignores unknown fields.
The schema now passes spectacular --validate --fail-on-warn; a test
keeps it that way.
