Correct doc and help sentences that are false about the code (closes #233)
check / check (push) Waiting to run

A blob is written whole to a temporary file and uploaded once finished,
not streamed to storage. The README, ARCHITECTURE.md and
config.example.yml now say a backup needs free temporary space for each
blob (twice that for an rclone destination that cannot stream uploads)
and for the metadata export's copies of the local index, in $TMPDIR, or
partly in /var/tmp when TMPDIR is unset. Also corrected: the snapshot ID
format, what restore reads and how incomplete snapshots are removed in
docs/DATAMODEL.md, what source_path holds, the index_path default, the
config search order in the snapshot create help, what snapshot remove
cleans up in the prune help, how the release installs Go, and the
script/release and script/fmt-check comments.
