fix(api): document dispose_engine lazy import + regression test (CAR-1135)

- main.py: add docstring inside the lifespan function explaining why
  dispose_engine is lazy-imported rather than top-level. The original
  import path (top-level) crashed the container at import time with
  'ImportError: cannot import name dispose_engine from cartsnitch_api.database'
  when database.py was stale or stripped during a CI build. Lazy import
  keeps the engine disposal behavior while preventing the module-load
  crash.
- tests/test_openapi.py: add test_dispose_engine_importable_from_database
  that asserts dispose_engine is importable and callable. This is the
  exact path the deployed UAT image was failing on, captured as a
  regression test so a future regression lands in CI before deploy.

Refs CAR-1135.
