refactor(BA-6003): use BackendAIModelValidationFailed.errors() accessor

Switch every caller that iterates ``BackendAIModelValidationFailed``'s
per-field error list from the verbose
``(e.extra_data or {}).get("errors", [])`` to the new ``e.errors()``
classmethod (mirrors ``pydantic.ValidationError.errors()``):

* 7 ``_build_dto`` CLI helpers in ``client/cli/v2/admin/*`` and
  ``client/cli/v2/model_card/commands.py``.
* The ``pydantic_params_api_handler`` decorator in
  ``manager/api/utils.py``.

Also drop a duplicate ``ModelDefinitionValidationError`` class that
slipped back in during a rebase.
