refactor(groups): Migrated groups.invites to typed REST endpoint

[Harxhit]

Proposed changes

Refactors the groups.invite endpoint to use the typed REST API endpoint system used by other API routes.

The endpoint now includes:

• Typed request validation using AJV
• Typed response validation using AJV
• TypeScript schema definitions for request and response
• Support for multiple user input formats (userId, userIds, usernames)
• Consistent error handling aligned with other endpoints
• OpenAPI-compatible schema support

Further comments

This migration aligns the groups.invite endpoint with the typed REST API route pattern used across the codebase.

The request schema was expanded to reflect the actual runtime behavior of the endpoint, which supports inviting users via multiple input formats (userId, userIds, or usernames).

No functional changes were introduced. Only structure, validation, and documentation improvements were made.

There were no available TestAPI cases for this endpoint, so no additional proof of testing has been attached.
