README: say which records quak could not decrypt lib.backup() reports

It reports each such album, and each such file in its scope that has no
copy that decrypted, not every record the library left out.

 # Completed Steps
 
+- 2026-10-13: An album or file quak cannot decrypt, or whose metadata is not
+  JSON, no longer fails the refresh, so one bad record no longer stops
+  `quak backup` from storing anything (issue 181). The refresh leaves it out, an
+  album with its files, and the library keeps it with the reason in
+  `metadata.json` until the server sends a copy that decrypts or deletes it. The
+  backup stores every other file, records each such file in `failures.json` with
+  an error starting `could not be decrypted:`, prints one line naming each such
+  album's ID, lists those IDs in `undecryptableAlbums`, and exits 1 while any
+  remain. A file whose copy in another album decrypts is backed up as usual. The
+  read commands answer from what decrypted.
+
+- 2026-10-14: `test/cli/backup-end-to-end.test.ts` runs `quak backup` as cron
+  does (issue 186): `backupCommand` and `run`, the real `loadSession` reading a
+  session saved after logging in, and every request answered by a fake of the
+  Ente HTTP API serving data encrypted with libsodium. It covers the backup tree
+  of an account with two albums of its own and one shared with it, a second run
+  that downloads nothing, a download that succeeds after two 503s, a 404 that
+  lands in `failures.json` with exit 1, a refresh answered 401 with exit 3, and
+  `--verify` putting back an original changed on disk. The fake server and the
+  account it logs in moved from the backup-metadata test into
+  `test/ente-server.ts`, unchanged.
+
+- 2026-10-14: `files --collection`, `get`, `get-thumb` and
+  `helper fix-missing-thumbnails --file` take an ID only when it is written in
+  decimal digits and is a safe integer (issue 185). Before, `Number()` read
+  `0x10` as 16, `1e3` as 1000 and an empty string as 0, and `--file` dropped an
+  ID it could not read without a word. Anything else now prints
+  `Invalid file ID: <arg>` or `Invalid collection ID: <arg>` and exits 1 before
+  any request; one bad `--file` ID fails the whole command. `parseID` in
+  `src/cli-commands.ts` does the check for all four.

+/**
+ * `quak backup` over an account holding an album or a file quak cannot decrypt
+ * (issue 181).
+ *
+ * The server sends every album and file encrypted, and a refresh decrypts each
+ * one it fetches. A record whose key no key of the account opens, or whose
+ * metadata is not JSON, must not fail the refresh: a refresh that fails commits
+ * nothing, so `quak backup` would store nothing, on every run, until the
+ * server's copy changed. Instead the refresh leaves that record out, and the
+ * library keeps a list of what it left out in its cache. It has to: the next
+ * refresh asks the server only for what changed since the last one, so it will
+ * not see the record again.
+ *
+ * The backup stores every other file. It records each file it could not
+ * decrypt in `failures.json`, prints one line for each album it could not
+ * decrypt, and exits 1 while any remain. Once the server sends a copy that
+ * decrypts, or deletes the record, the next run drops it and can exit 0. The
+ * read commands answer from what did decrypt.
+ *
+ * These tests run the commands with a real saved session over a stand-in Ente
+ * server, which serves albums, files and originals encrypted with libsodium as
+ * the real server does. A record is broken the way a corrupt one arrives: its
+ * key replaced by bytes no key opens, or its metadata text that is not JSON.
