Subject: [PATCH] fix: operator precedence bug in detection type check

The condition:
  topic == DetectionTypeEnum.api.value or DetectionTypeEnum.lpr.value

evaluates as:
  (topic == DetectionTypeEnum.api.value) or (DetectionTypeEnum.lpr.value)

Since DetectionTypeEnum.lpr.value is a non-empty string (truthy), the
second operand is always True regardless of topic. The intended check
is whether topic matches either enum value:
  topic == DetectionTypeEnum.api.value or topic == DetectionTypeEnum.lpr.value
