Merge feature/remote-id-hashing-and-resilient-list

Two related changes, both addressing leakage and brittleness around
the public bytes the destination store sees.

First, every remote storage path that previously embedded a human
snapshot ID (e.g. metadata/heraklion_berlin.sneak.fs.photos.2026.
catalog_2026-06-24T07:00:15Z/...) now uses the hashed remote key:

  RemoteSnapshotKey(id) = hex(SHA256(SHA256("vaultik|" + id)))

Applied at:

  * uploadSnapshotArtifacts (snapshot create write path)
  * the manifest.json.zst snapshot_id field — manifest is
    unencrypted, so the human ID would otherwise be readable to
    anyone with bucket-list permission
  * cleanupIncompleteSnapshots metadata-existence probe
  * snapshot restore / verify (downloadSnapshotDB,
    loadVerificationData)
  * downloadManifestByKey, deleteRemoteSnapshotByKey
  * CleanupLocalSnapshots reconciliation
  * the locally-driven removal paths (RemoveSnapshot,
    RemoveAllSnapshots, confirmAndExecutePurge)

The local index database keeps human IDs everywhere — the hash is a
boundary translation, not a rename. A directory listing of the
backup destination now looks like
"metadata/<64-hex>/{db.zst.age,manifest.json.zst}" with no host,
snapshot-name, or timestamp information visible.

Second, snapshot list no longer fails just because remote storage is
unreachable, and only consults the remote when the local machine can
plausibly decrypt:

  * Listing is always driven by the local index database — that's
    what holds the human IDs, timestamps, and per-snapshot stats
    that the table actually shows.
  * If no age secret key is configured, we skip remote listing
    entirely (the box is treated as a write-only backup machine —
    there's no value showing it remote-only keys it could never
    restore).
  * If a key IS configured, we try the remote listing; failures
    (volume unmounted, permission denied, network error) downgrade
    to a warning instead of aborting the command.
  * When the remote listing succeeds, we cross-reference by hashing
    each local human ID and diffing against the returned key set.
    Local-only snapshots get the existing "stale local record"
    cleanup hint; remote-only keys are surfaced as a single
    "NOTE: N remote snapshot(s) found in backup destination store
    but not in local database" line.

FileStorer construction also no longer does an eager mkdir — the
basePath is recorded and the directory is created lazily on first
write. A missing or unmounted destination during `snapshot list`
should NOT block the command, and now it doesn't.

RemoveAllSnapshots is rewritten to drive deletion from the local
index instead of from a remote listing, hashing each local ID to
find the corresponding remote key. Orphan remote keys (no matching
local snapshot) are handled separately and only deleted when
--remote is set. Existing tests are updated to hash storage paths
through the new RemoteSnapshotKey helper.

The hash format is a hard pre-1.0 break: existing remote snapshots
written under the human-ID path scheme are no longer readable; they
need to be either re-uploaded under the new scheme or manually
renamed. There is no fallback path; matching the project policy of
"no migrations pre-1.0."

 ## roadmap
 
-Items for future releases:
+Items still to do before / shortly after 1.0. Loosely ordered by
+priority.
 
-* Error-condition tests (network failures, disk full, corrupted/missing blobs)
+### correctness and operability
-* Parallel blob downloads during restore
+
-* Bandwidth limiting (`--bwlimit`)
+* **Security audit of the encryption implementation.** Pre-1.0
-* Security audit of encryption implementation
+  blocker if we're advertising "secure" at the top of this README.
-* Man pages and richer `--help` examples
+  age + zstd + content-defined chunking is mostly off-the-shelf
+  pieces, but the seams (key handling, recipient parsing, manifest
+  trust boundary, restore-time identity validation) need an outside
+  read.
+* **Error-condition tests.** Today's coverage is the happy path
+  plus a few specific regressions. Need fault-injection coverage:
+  network failures mid-blob, disk-full during restore, corrupted /
+  truncated / missing blobs, partial uploads, kill -9 between
+  manifest and db.zst.age writes.
+* **Verify restored content end-to-end in CI.** The current
+  integration test does this for a small synthetic snapshot but
+  not at scale. A nightly job against a multi-GB representative
+  snapshot would catch silent regressions in the chunker, packer,
+  or restore planner.
+
+### performance
+
+* **Parallel blob downloads during restore.** Single-stream right
+  now. With a fast S3 endpoint and a multi-core machine restore is
+  bound by per-blob fetch + decrypt + decompress; running N of
+  those in parallel against the disk cache would close most of the
+  remaining gap. Needs to interact correctly with the locality
+  planner and sweeper.
+* **Bandwidth limiting (`--bwlimit`).** Both upload and download.
+  Useful for backing up over a shared link. Tricky to make work
+  correctly with the parallel-download story.
+* **Restart of interrupted restore.** Today restore is restartable
+  in the sense that re-running it overwrites partial output; it
+  doesn't resume from where it stopped or skip already-present
+  files. A `--resume` mode that checks targets before fetching
+  blobs would matter for very large restores.
+
+### usability
+
+* **Man pages and richer `--help` examples.** Cobra generates
+  basic help; man pages would be a separate target.
+* **`--bwlimit` style human-readable size flags** across the
+  command surface where they're currently raw integers.
+* **`vaultik snapshot diff <a> <b>`** — show which files changed
+  between two snapshots without restoring either.
+* **Status reporting hook for `--cron`.** When a backup fails
+  silently in cron, the user has no idea. A configurable
+  webhook / email / `notify-send` hook on completion (success and
+  failure) would close the loop.
+
+### infrastructure
+
+* **Cross-machine restore documentation.** The "restore from
+  another host" workflow works but isn't documented as a
+  first-class operation in this README. Worth a dedicated section
+  once it's settled.
+* **Schema migrations.** Currently nonexistent — pre-1.0 schema
+  changes are handled by `vaultik database purge` plus a full
+  re-scan. Post-1.0 we'll need a migration story to keep existing
+  index databases usable across upgrades.
+* **Storage backend coverage tests.** S3, file://, and rclone://
+  all share the Storer interface but the rclone path is the least
+  exercised in CI.
