Finalize an object upload

Call this after the upload PUT completes.

Endpoint
POST https://api.dairo.app/v1/buckets/{bucketId}/objects/{objectId}/finalize

Call this after the upload PUT completes. Dairo measures the uploaded bytes for their true size, gates them against your account's storage limit (returning 429 and discarding the orphaned upload if it would exceed), records the object, and returns it with scanStatus: "pending". The returned object's id is not the upload objectId: download, share links and delete take this id. Finalizing is idempotent: re-finalizing an already-recorded object returns it unchanged and never re-charges storage. Finalizing before the PUT has landed returns 404, and reusing a one-time upload URL returns 409. The malware scan runs asynchronously; an object.scanned webhook fires when the verdict is ready. Requires buckets:write.

Scope: buckets:write. Send the API key as a bearer token; Scopes lists what each one reaches.
