end_time is derived (start_time + hours) and has no setter of its own -- the date_time_property declaration had a custom getter but no setter, so Representable fell through to its default send(:end_time=, value) when a client included endTime in a write payload, crashing with NoMethodError since TimeEntry defines no such method. Add an explicit no-op setter, matching how other purely-computed read-only representer properties in this codebase already handle a write attempt.

Pull request overview
Fixes a crash in the Costs module’s API v3 time entry representer when clients include endTime in write payloads, by explicitly handling the field as unwritable (since end_time is derived from start_time + hours and has no model setter).
Changes:
- Add an explicit no-op setter for the computed
end_timerepresenter property to prevent Representable from calling a non-existentend_time=method. - Add a regression parsing spec ensuring payloads containing
endTimeno longer raise (and should be ignored).

Collapse the setter to a one-line no-op matching this codebase's existing
convention for an ignored representer property (setter: ->(*) {} #
ignored, per query_representer.rb's :hidden property). The regression
spec's respond_to?(:end_time=) assertion was always true/false
independent of whether the payload was actually respected -- TimeEntry
never had that method regardless of the fix. Replaced with an assertion
that a deliberately different endTime value is genuinely ignored,
verified against the value start_time + hours actually derives.
