Venice Errors
Handle Venice API errors correctly. Covers the error body shapes (StandardError, DetailedError with validation details/issues, OpenAI-style context_length_exceeded, upstream provider rejections with request_id including TypeSafe/FastAPI validation errors, ContentViolationError, ProviderContentPolicyError, PayloadTooLargeError, the two x402 402 bodies), every meaningful status code (400-504, including 410 for retired endpoints), the three families of rate-limit headers, the per-key error budget (FAILED_REQUESTS / UNSUPPORTED_FEATURE_REQUESTS), Retry-After on overloaded models, SSE stream errors

# Venice errors & retries
Most Venice errors are `{ "error": "<message>" }`, but several paths add structure. Knowing which shape you got tells you how to react.
## Error body shapes
### 1. `StandardError` - simple message
The default for 4xx/5xx.
```json
{ "error": "Authentication failed" }
```
### 2. `DetailedError` - schema validation failure (`400`)
When a request fails Venice's own schema, `details` is a nested tree (`_errors` recursively keyed by field) and `issues` is the flat issue list. Some image, video and upstream failures instead return `details` as a plain string, so check its type before walking it.
```json
{
"error": "Invalid request parameters",
"details": {
"_errors": [],
"type": { "_errors": ["Invalid enum value. Expected 'asr' | 'decision' | … , received 'bogus'", "Invalid enum value. Expected 'all' | 'code', received 'bogus'"] }
},
"issues": [
{ "code": "invalid_union", "unionErrors": [ … ], "path": ["type"], "message": "Invalid input" }
]
}
```
(That is the live response to `GET /models?type=bogus`.)
Many `400`s are plain `StandardError` - handle both. Render `details` / `issues`; don't retry.
### 3. OpenAI-style context overflow (`400`, chat)
```json
{
"error": {
"message": "Your request exceeds the model's maximum context. Please reduce your prompt or completion length.",
"type": "invalid_request_error",
"param": "messages",
"code": "context_length_exceeded"
}
}
