v27.2: Fix /api/lab/status 422 crash — make batchId optional

GET /api/lab/status and /api/lab/result required batchId as a
mandatory query param, but the React SPA calls them with no param
on page load. FastAPI returned 422 Unprocessable Content, which
caused the BatchSimPage to crash and the UI to flash then vanish
in a retry loop.

Fix: batchId is now Optional[str] = None. When omitted, returns
the most recent active batch (or idle defaults for status).
