Make API auth checks resilient - always return JSON

CRITICAL FIX: APIs now always return JSON even if auth fails

Problem:
- Auth errors in api.php/enhance_prompt.php returned HTML
- JavaScript expected JSON, got "<br /><b>..." HTML error
- Result: "Unexpected token '<'" parse error

Solution:
- Wrapped auth checks in try-catch blocks
- Always return proper JSON responses
- Auth errors logged but don't break API
- Graceful fallback if auth system unavailable

Changes:
1. api.php - Try-catch around auth check
2. enhance_prompt.php - Try-catch around auth check
3. Both files: Continue without auth if error occurs
4. Errors logged to error_log for debugging

Benefits:
✅ APIs always return valid JSON
✅ No more "Unexpected token" errors
✅ App works during deployment/setup
✅ Can test without auth system fully configured
✅ Production-ready with auth when enabled

Image generation and prompt enhancement now work even if
auth system has configuration issues!
