Get Exam Prerequisites - Plugixa Exam

GET /plugixa-exam/v1/exams/{id}/prerequisites

List the exams a person must pass, attempt or reach a score on before they can start this one.

Not reachable with an API token: since 1.4.1 a token request to this route answers 403 plugixa_exam_token_route. Call it as a signed-in WordPress user (from a script, with an Application Password) who holds the exams:view permission. Needs Plugixa Exam Pro with the Prerequisites app on in Plugixa Exam -> App Manager; with it off, this route answers 404.

Note. The rows come back exactly as stored: ids, ordering, created_by, modified_by and min_percent are strings, not numbers. An unknown exam id is not an error: it answers 200 with an empty list.
