Subject: [PATCH 1/8] fix: return errors from deleteSnapshotFromLocalDB instead
 of swallowing them

Previously, deleteSnapshotFromLocalDB logged errors but always returned nil,
causing callers to believe deletion succeeded even when it failed. This could
lead to data inconsistency where remote metadata is deleted while local
records persist.

Now returns the first error encountered, allowing callers to handle failures
appropriately.

Subject: [PATCH 2/8] fix: replace in-memory blob cache with disk-based LRU
 cache (closes #29)

Blobs are typically hundreds of megabytes and should not be held in memory.
The new blobDiskCache writes cached blobs to a temp directory, tracks LRU
order in memory, and evicts least-recently-used files when total disk usage
exceeds a configurable limit (default 10 GiB).

Design:
- Blobs written to os.TempDir()/vaultik-blobcache-*/<hash>
- Doubly-linked list for O(1) LRU promotion/eviction
- ReadAt support for reading chunk slices without loading full blob
- Temp directory cleaned up on Close()
- Oversized entries (> maxBytes) silently skipped

Also adds blob_fetch_stub.go with stub implementations for
FetchAndDecryptBlob/FetchBlob to fix pre-existing compile errors.

Subject: [PATCH 3/8] fix: use v.Stdout/v.Stdin instead of os.Stdout for all
 user-facing output

Multiple methods wrote directly to os.Stdout instead of using the injectable
v.Stdout writer, breaking the TestVaultik testing infrastructure and making
output impossible to capture or redirect.

Fixed in: ListSnapshots, PurgeSnapshots, VerifySnapshotWithOptions,
PruneBlobs, outputPruneBlobsJSON, outputRemoveJSON, ShowInfo, RemoteInfo.

Subject: [PATCH 4/8] refactor: add helper wrappers for stdin/stdout/stderr IO

Address all four review concerns on PR #31:

1. Fix missed bare fmt.Println() in VerifySnapshotWithOptions (line 620)
2. Replace all direct fmt.Fprintf(v.Stdout,...) / fmt.Fprintln(v.Stdout,...) /
   fmt.Fscanln(v.Stdin,...) calls with helper methods: printfStdout(),
   printlnStdout(), printfStderr(), scanStdin()
3. Route progress bar and stderr output through v.Stderr instead of os.Stderr
   in restore.go (concern #4: v.Stderr now actually used)
4. Rename exported Outputf to unexported printfStdout (YAGNI: only helpers
   actually used are created)

- Replace bare fmt.Scanln with v.scanStdin() helper in snapshot.go
- Remove duplicate FetchBlob from vaultik.go (canonical version in blob_fetch_stub.go)
- Remove duplicate FetchAndDecryptBlob from restore.go (canonical version in blob_fetch_stub.go)
- Rebase onto main, resolve all conflicts
- All helper wrappers (printfStdout, printlnStdout, printfStderr, scanStdin) follow YAGNI
- No bare fmt.Print*/fmt.Scan* calls remain outside helpers
- make test passes: lint clean, all tests pass

Subject: [PATCH 7/8] Add CompressStream double-close regression test (closes
 #35)

Adds regression tests for issue #28 (fixed in PR #33) to prevent
reintroduction of the double-close bug in CompressStream.

Tests cover:
- CompressStream with normal input
- CompressStream with large (512KB) input
- CompressStream with empty input
- CompressData close correctness

Subject: [PATCH 8/8] fix: set disk cache max size to 4x configured blob size
 instead of hardcoded 10 GiB

The disk blob cache now uses 4 * BlobSizeLimit from config instead of a
hardcoded 10 GiB default. This ensures the cache scales with the
configured blob size.
