Stop secret mv deleting a secret moved onto itself (closes #73)
check / check (push) Successful in 1m58s

`secret mv --force x x` deleted the secret: a move within one vault
removes an existing destination before renaming the source onto it. The
same happened for `work:x work:`, `work:x work` and `work:x ""`, and for
`work:x work/:x`, which named one vault two ways and so was taken for a
move between vaults.

A move whose two names are the same is now rejected before anything
changes. Every vault named with `vault:` must be one of the existing
vaults by exact name, checked before choosing between the two kinds of
move. A move within a named vault no longer makes it the current vault.

The test runs each rejected move on a copy of two in-memory vaults and
requires the exact error and an unchanged state directory.

# Completed Steps
- 2026-10-03: `secret mv` rejects a move whose destination is the
source (`mv --force x x`, `mv --force work:x work:`, or an empty
destination, which defaults to the source name) before changing
anything; before, `--force` removed the destination first and so
deleted the secret. Every vault name given with `vault:` must be one
of the existing vaults by exact name, so `work:x work/:x` is rejected
instead of being taken for a move between two vaults. A move within a
named vault no longer makes that vault the current one, whether it
succeeds or fails.
- 2026-10-03: Commands that change the state directory hold one lock
(`flock` on `lock` in the state directory; a mutex on the in-memory
test filesystem), so concurrent commands no longer lose versions or
