A wrong passphrase gives an error that says so (closes #157)

A passphrase that did not decrypt the passphrase unlocker failed with age's "no identity matched any of the recipients" and advice to give the vault a new unlocker from its mnemonic, which would replace an unlocker that works. GetIdentity now turns that age error into "wrong passphrase for unlocker <id>", wrapping the new secret.ErrWrongPassphrase, and withMnemonicAdvice leaves it alone, as it does when no passphrase was read. A passphrase from SB_UNLOCK_PASSPHRASE and a typed one both reach this code. A priv.age that is not an age file keeps the advice. Judgement call: age cannot tell a wrong passphrase from a damaged key inside a priv.age whose header reads, so that case now reads as a wrong passphrase. Model: opus-5-5

# Completed Steps
|
||||
|
||||
- 2026-10-14: A wrong passphrase, from `SB_UNLOCK_PASSPHRASE` or typed at the
|
||||
prompt, gives the error `wrong passphrase for unlocker <id>`
|
||||
(https://git.eeqj.de/sneak/secret/issues/157). It used to be age's "no
|
||||
identity matched any of the recipients", followed by advice to give the vault
|
||||
a new unlocker from its mnemonic, which would have replaced an unlocker that
|
||||
works. The error now wraps `secret.ErrWrongPassphrase` and carries no advice
|
||||
to use the mnemonic. A `priv.age` that is not an age file still gets that
|
||||
advice.
|
||||
- 2026-10-14: The passphrase and mnemonic prompts ask on the controlling
|
||||
terminal (`/dev/tty`) instead of stdin, so `echo v | secret add s1 --force`,
|
||||
`cat file | secret encrypt key` and `cat file.age | secret decrypt key` ask
