Parse age_recipients at config load and never echo the entry (closes #153)

Config.Validate now parses every age_recipients entry with age.ParseX25519Recipient, so a bad recipient fails at config load instead of deep in a backup after the snapshot row and tree walk. On failure the error names the position (age_recipients[N]) and never the value: a recipient string can itself be a secret key an operator pasted by mistake, and age's own error quotes its input. An entry starting with AGE-SECRET-KEY- gets a specific message.

The remaining parse sites (blobgen.NewWriter, crypto NewEncryptor and UpdateRecipients), reachable by callers that skip config.Load, likewise drop the value and age's wrapped error, naming only the position.
