Create a vault whole in a temporary directory, then select it (closes #105)
check / check (push) Failing after 2s

vault.CreateVault takes the unlocker passphrase and writes the vault
directory, its metadata, long-term public key and passphrase unlocker
into a temporary directory, renames that into vaults.d once complete,
and only then makes the vault current. secret init and secret vault
create call it once instead of adding the unlocker afterwards, so a
kill part-way leaves either no vault, whose temporary directory the
next command that takes the lock deletes, or a complete one. A test
records the state directory before every change the call makes and
checks each state, and the command run again from it.

# Completed Steps
- 2026-10-04: `secret init` and `secret vault create` create a vault whole or
not at all (https://git.eeqj.de/sneak/secret/issues/105).
`vault.CreateVault` now takes the unlocker passphrase too, writes the vault
directory with its metadata, long-term public key and passphrase unlocker,
`longterm.age` included, into a temporary directory, renames that into
`vaults.d` once it is complete, and only then makes the vault current.
Before, either command killed after the passphrase prompt but before the
unlocker was written left a vault with no unlocker, which `vault create` had
already made current and which neither command would create again. Killed
part-way now, it leaves no vault, and the next command that takes the lock
deletes the temporary directory; or, killed between the rename and making
the vault current, a complete vault that is not current, which
`secret vault select` makes current.

cross-vault copies are built in a temporary directory and renamed
into place, and removals rename out of the way first, so a version
or secret is never half-added and never half-removed. An
interrupted command can still leave, from `init` or `vault create`
killed after the passphrase prompt but before the unlocker is
written, a vault with no unlocker, which `vault create` has already
made the current vault.
