Bulk import orders via CSV
Upload a CSV file to validate and preview order creation. Returns a row-by-row result — valid rows and any errors. Use /api/vendor/v1/orders/csv-template to download the correct format first.
Note: This endpoint validates and returns results; it does not create orders automatically. Use the JSON /api/vendor/v1/orders/bulk endpoint to actually create orders, or use the vendor dashboard UI for a guided import flow.
