A failed secret add --force leaves the secret unchanged (closes #136)
check / check (push) Canceled after 0s

addVersion wrote the new version before it unlocked the vault to set
notAfter on the version being replaced, so a wrong passphrase or mnemonic
left an extra version behind. It now unlocks the vault and loads that
version's metadata first; writing notAfter and switching current still
come after the new version is saved. generate secret --force and
import --force take the same path.

updatePreviousVersion asks for the long-term key again. The vault keeps
it in memory after the first unlock, so this neither prompts nor derives
it a second time.

# Completed Steps
- 2026-10-14: A `secret add --force` that cannot unlock the vault, given a wrong
passphrase or mnemonic, leaves the secret as it was
(https://git.eeqj.de/sneak/secret/issues/136). The new version used to be
written before the vault was unlocked to set `notAfter` on the version it
replaces, so each failed add left one more version that `secret version list`
showed. The vault is now unlocked, and that version's metadata read, before
anything is written. `generate secret --force` and `import --force` take the
same path.
- 2026-10-12: A mnemonic typed with extra spaces, tabs or line breaks gives the
same long-term key as its words separated by single spaces
(https://git.eeqj.de/sneak/secret/issues/135). The key was derived from the
