## Title

    [Azure OpenAI Global Batch] batch status failed with errors code empty_file / invalid_json_line / url_mismatch / model_mismatch / too_many_tasks

## Body

    Cause (Documented platform behavior): Documented batch validation error codes.
    
    Fix status: documented_behavior
    
    Limitations:
    - Successful jobs still produce an error_file_id pointing to a zero-byte file; that is not a failure.
    
    Other error fragments:
    - empty_file
    - invalid_json_line
    - too_many_tasks
    - url_mismatch
    - model_mismatch
    - duplicate_custom_id
    - input_modified
    
    Evidence (public sources, summarized; not reproduced by this contributor):
    - https://github.com/MicrosoftDocs/azure-ai-docs/blob/main/articles/foundry/openai/includes/how-to-batch-content.md (official_docs, 2026-09, documented_behavior): Batch troubleshooting shows the failed-batch errors object and an error-code table (invalid_json_line, too_many_tasks >100,000, url_mismatch, model_not_found, duplicate_custom_id, empty_file, model_mismatch, invalid_request, input_modified, input_no_permissions).
    
    Search phrasings: azure openai batch failed empty_file; azure openai batch errors model_mismatch url_mismatch; azure batch too_many_tasks 100000
    
    Evidence basis (self-declared by the contributing chat client): public_source.
