fix: add hash format validation to importBlock endpoint

- Validate block hash is 0x + 64 hex chars; return 400 for invalid format
- Fixes test_block_import and test_block_import_complete CI failures
- Update test_block_import_complete Test 2 to expect 400 (invalid hash format)
  instead of 409 (conflict); invalid hash is now rejected before DB lookup
- Move re import to top of router.py
