Reject dual-envelope bodies before classifying the refusal.

When a 400 body contains both detail and error, this classifier selects detail first. If detail contains the exact refusal, combo failover can treat the ambiguous body as a refusal and hop to the next target. Reject bodies that contain both envelopes before reading either field.

Suggested fix 
   if (!payload || typeof payload !== "object" || Array.isArray(payload)) return false;
+  if (Object.hasOwn(payload, "detail") && Object.hasOwn(payload, "error")) return false;
   const { detail, error } = payload as { detail?: unknown; error?: { message?: unknown } };

Review comment at @src/combos/failover.ts around lines 685 - 690:
Update the refusal classifier in failover.ts to reject payloads containing both
the detail and error envelopes before reading either field; preserve existing
classification for payloads containing only one envelope.
