isra el 6b66160f7f fix(api): actually enforce email and password validation
validateEmail and validatePassword are async and signal failure by
throwing (a rejected promise). Three callers invoked them without await:
register (both) and changePassword. An unawaited rejected promise is
dropped, so execution continued past the check: registration accepted a
malformed email or an out-of-range password, and a password change
accepted a too-short new password. The validators were effectively dead.

Adding await makes the existing rules take effect at their intended
point. Legitimate clients are unaffected: the web signup and
change-password forms already enforce a valid email and the length
bounds, so this only rejects input the service was always meant to
reject, with a clean 400 instead of persisting bad data.

Guards were written first and seen to fail against the pre-fix code
(register with a bad email or short password still created the user;
changePassword with a short password still saved), then pass after the
await is added. The valid-input paths are asserted to still succeed.

This is the dependency-free half of what a global ValidationPipe would
have covered. The pipe itself is deferred: class-transformer is not
installed, so enabling it now would add a dependency and risk crashing
once any DTO gains a decorator. Recommended as a separate follow-up.
