POST /mltk/experiments (create)

Description. Create a new experiment. Body is form-encoded (matches Splunk conf endpoint contract).

Required fields (validated against bin/experiment/experiment_schema.json):

• title (string)
• type (string, enum): one of predict_numeric_fields, predict_categorical_fields, detect_numeric_outliers, detect_categorical_outliers, forecast_time_series, smart_forecast, smart_outlier_detection, smart_clustering, smart_prediction, cluster_numeric_events.

Optional fields. description, notes, hasSchedule ("0"/"1"), hasAlerts, hasEnabledAlerts, alertIds[], searchStages (JSON-encoded array of stage definitions).

Validation bypass. exp-operation=rename skips the schema validation step.
