* Extracts the userId from an optional Bearer token.
*
* Distinguishes *missing* credentials from *invalid* ones:
* - No `Authorization: Bearer …` header (or a placeholder value such as the
* `Bearer undefined` that the client emits when logged out) → anonymous (null).
* - A real token that fails verification (expired / bad signature) → throws 401,
* so a stale client session surfaces as an auth error it can react to, instead
* of being silently downgraded to anonymous (which yields a misleading 404 on
* private resources).
