}Validate Twin
Everything a create checks, for free, without creating anything: the dataset resolves and has video, which camera will seed the room, and how long a twin typically takes.
Errors name what to fix, with the field in param: dataset_not_found, dataset_gated,
dataset_has_no_video, camera_not_found (details.cameras lists the real ones), no_suitable_camera.
