Feat: expose parent-child chunking configuration via HTTP API and Python SDK (#13940)

…
### What problem does this PR solve?

Closes #13857

Parent-child chunking was introduced in v0.23.0 but is only configurable
through the web UI. Users managing datasets programmatically cannot
enable it via the HTTP API or Python SDK because `ParserConfig` uses
`extra="forbid"`, rejecting the `children_delimiter` field at
validation.

### What does this PR change?

Adds a `parent_child` nested config to `ParserConfig`, following the
same pattern as `raptor` and `graphrag`:

```json
"parser_config": {
  "parent_child": {
    "use_parent_child": true,
    "children_delimiter": "\n"
  }
}
```

- api/utils/validation_utils.py — new ParentChildConfig model, added to
ParserConfig
- api/utils/api_utils.py — naive defaults + flatten to
children_delimiter for the execution layer
- api/apps/services/dataset_api_service.py — flatten on the update path
- test/testcases/configs.py — updated DEFAULT_PARSER_CONFIG
-
test/testcases/test_http_api/test_dataset_management/test_create_dataset.py
— 4 valid + 2 invalid test cases

No changes to the execution layer (rag/app/naive.py, rag/nlp/search.py).
Existing UI flow via ext is unaffected.
