Print progress at once off a terminal, keep stderr to one writer (closes #13)
check / check (push) Successful in 1m25s

On a pipe, a file or /dev/null each scan phase now prints its zero-state
line the moment it starts instead of after its first finished item, so
a slow first read under cron no longer leaves the log silent. Terminal
detection uses golang.org/x/term, now a direct dependency listed in the
README; the old character-device test took /dev/null for a terminal.
The walk spinner no longer redraws from the library's own goroutine; it
advances only as items complete, so a redraw cannot garble a warning.
Building the bar moved into newBar so the terminal display can be
tested without a terminal.

Lint suppressed: gosec on two test file opens, paralleltest on three
tests that replace os.Stderr.

Additional requirements:
- When stderr is not a TTY, do not emit ANSI redraws: print a plain
one-line progress update no more often than every 5 seconds instead.
- When stderr is not a terminal (a pipe, a file, `/dev/null`), do not
emit ANSI redraws: print a plain one-line progress update the moment
each phase starts, then no more often than every 5 seconds.
- Progress updates are driven from the main goroutine and must be
non-blocking with respect to the worker pool.
non-blocking with respect to the worker pool. Nothing redraws in the
background (the spinner advances only as items complete), so a
warning printed during a phase always lands on its own line.
- `report` and `trees` modes need no progress display, only their
stderr summaries.
