Log to stderr and stop discarding With attributes (closes #82)
All checks were successful
check / check (push) Successful in 4m20s

Closes #97.

internal/log attached both handlers to os.Stdout, so any record that was
not suppressed landed in the middle of a --json document. WARN and ERROR
are never suppressed, so this was not hypothetical: a config file with
permissions looser than 0600 was enough to break
`vaultik snapshot list --json | jq`.

Both handlers now write to os.Stderr, and the TTY-vs-JSON format choice
tests os.Stderr rather than os.Stdout - the format has to follow the
stream the records land on, or a redirected stderr gets colorized
whenever stdout happens to be a terminal.

User-visible: --verbose and --debug output moves to stderr too, so
`vaultik snapshot list -v > out.txt` no longer captures diagnostics.
--quiet and --cron semantics are unchanged.

TTYHandler.WithAttrs and WithGroup discarded their arguments and returned
the receiver, while their doc comments claimed otherwise, so attributes
passed through the exported log.With vanished. The effect was
environment-dependent in the worst direction: handler choice is by
TTY-ness, so attributes disappeared on a terminal - where a developer is
debugging - and appeared correctly in CI. Both now return a new handler
with copied state rather than mutating the receiver, since slog permits a
handler to be shared and derived from concurrently. A test asserts the
TTY and JSON handlers emit the same attribute set, which is the test that
would have caught the original defect.

The local workaround in snapshot_list.go is removed now that the logger
no longer writes to stdout. The collect-then-emit machinery is kept, but
for a different reason than it was added: emitting from the fetch workers
would order warnings by network timing, whereas key-order emission after
group.Wait() is deterministic run to run.

Not yet complete: --json stdout still carries the startup banner, which
internal/cli/entry.go writes before cobra parses and which
bannerSuppressedInArgs does not recognise --json for. That is the
remaining stdout contamination path and is tracked in #106.
