Bug 35246: Make Koha::Biblio->to_api throw relevant exception if no biblioitem
row

This patch makes the `to_api()` method return an proper exception when
the `$self->biblioitem` accessor returns `undef`. This is a bad data
scenario and we could do better in terms of logging the situation.

The new exception will be correctly rendered in the logs by the
`unhandled_exception` Mojolicious helper and no behavior change on the
API.

I wasn't sure to keep the api tests I wrote. I originally added handling
for the specific exception in the controller, but it become obvious it
was not worth: too much code, the `GET /biblios` endpoint would need the
same treatment, etc. And the current `500 Internal server error` is good
enough as a response, and the logs explain the situation correctly.

To test:
1. On a fresh `KTD` pick a biblio (say biblionumber=1)
2. Use your favourite REST tool (Postman?) to access the record with
   `Accept: application/json`. i.e.

```
GET kohadev.localhost/api/v1/biblios/1
Accept: application/json
```

=> SUCCESS: All good
3. Delete the related `biblioitems` row:
   $ ktd --shell
  k$ koha-mysql kohadev
   > DELETE FROM biblioitems WHERE biblionumber=1; \q
4. Repeat 2
=> SUCCESS: You get a 500 error
5. Check the logs
=> FAIL: You get a cryptic message about accessing a method on an
undefined object:

```
2025/02/13 13:15:00] [ERROR] GET /api/v1/biblios: unhandled exception
(Mojo::Exception)<<Can't call method "to_api" on an undefined value at
/usr/share/koha/Koha/Biblio.pm line 1433.>>
```

6. Apply this patch
7. Restart things:
  k$ restart_all
8. Repeat 2
=> SUCCESS: You get a 500 error
9. Check the logs
=> SUCCESS: You get a more meaningful exception:

```
[2025/02/13 13:20:00] [ERROR] GET /api/v1/biblios/1: unhandled exception
(Koha::Exceptions::RelatedObjectNotFound)<<Exception
'Koha::Exceptions::RelatedObjectNotFound' thrown 'The requested related object
does not exist' with accessor => biblioitem, class => Koha::Biblioitem>>
```

10. Run the tests:
  k$ prove t/db_dependent/Koha/Biblio.t \
           t/db_dependent/api/v1/biblios.t
=> SUCCESS: They pass!
11. Sign off :-D
