Start a flood simulation run for a built scenario.
The scenario must be in 'built' status. Returns 202 with the new run.
The run transitions through: built → queued → computing → processing → complete.
After starting, poll get_run_status to track progress. Returns 409
if the scenario is not in the correct state.
