Fixes an issue where the API server would crash with a 500 Internal Server Error when a request was sent with an unparseable content-type or undefined body. It gracefully defaults to returning a 400 Bad Request error. Also includes tests to prevent regression.


PR created automatically by Jules for task 7612221067731788219 started by @shenald-dev

When non-JSON content types are sent, express.json() does not parse the body, resulting in `req.body` being undefined. Trying to destructure properties directly from it causes a TypeError and crashes the server with a 500 error.

Added a fallback (`|| {}`) during destructuring to handle this case cleanly and return a 400 Bad Request instead. Also added tests to ensure this robustness.
