Request sick days

Creates a new sick days record for the current employee.

How sick days work:

Employee reports sick days with start and end dates
Optional comment can be added
Medical certificates can be attached (upload files first, then provide file IDs)
System automatically checks for overlapping events

To upload medical certificates:

Call POST /api/public/workspace/upload for each file
Get the file ID from the response
Include the file IDs in the attachedFilesIds array

Note: This endpoint is only available for employee accounts. The system validates that there are no overlapping events (vacations, other sick days, etc.) for the specified period.
