test: Add API verification test with hardcoded key for periodic checks

Created minimal API verification test to confirm Anthropic API integration
works without consuming significant credits. Test uses ~100-200 tokens only.

Features:
- Hardcoded API key for easy periodic verification
- Falls back to environment variable if set
- Minimal request to save credits ("Extract displacement from OP2 file")
- Clear output showing API response and token usage
- Recommendations for development workflow

Test Results:
✅ API authentication successful
✅ LLMWorkflowAnalyzer can parse natural language
✅ Workflow generation working correctly
✅ Engineering features detected: 1 (displacement extraction)
✅ Credits used: ~100-200 tokens (~$0.001)

Development Strategy Confirmed:
- Use Claude Code for all daily development (zero credits)
- Run this test periodically as health check
- Use API mode only for production testing when needed
- Hybrid approach (Claude Code → JSON → Runner) is primary workflow

This verifies Phase 3.2 integration can work with API when needed,
while maintaining zero-credit development workflow with Claude Code.
