The stock stream.conf marks type = api as mandatory ("YOU MUST SET
THIS FIELD ON ALL API KEYS"), but all examples in the README omitted
it. This caused AI support agents and users copying from docs to
produce incomplete configurations.

Added type = api to all Parent-side streaming configuration examples in src/streaming/README.md. This aligns with stream.conf’s mandatory requirement and prevents users from creating invalid parent configs when copying from the docs.
Written for commit 21b1d57. Summary will update on new commits.
