Add storage tests for URL parsing and every in-process backend (closes #66)

internal/storage had no tests. This adds table-driven ParseStorageURL
coverage and a shared Storer conformance suite, defined once in
conformance_test.go and run against every backend that can run
in-process: file:// over a temp dir and s3:// over the same in-memory
S3 harness (gofakes3 + s3mem) that internal/s3 and the not-found test
use, so a new backend inherits the contract by passing its constructor.
The rclone backend gets construction and argument-shaping tests via
rclone's in-process ":local" backend, plus the missing-remote error
path; a comment records that its data-plane operations need a configured
remote and so cannot run in a unit test.

Tests only; no production code changed and no defect surfaced.

-- 2026-09-21: Stopped `--json` from silencing stderr diagnostics
-  ([issue #112](https://git.eeqj.de/sneak/vaultik/issues/112)). `--json`
-  used to be folded into `Quiet`, which pinned the log level to `WARN`,
-  so `prune --json` gave a machine consumer no record of the local index
-  rows it deleted even under `--verbose`. `--json` now quiets only the
-  stdout UI (the JSON document must stay clean, per
-  [issue #108](https://git.eeqj.de/sneak/vaultik/issues/108)); the stderr
-  log level follows `--verbose`/`--debug` again. The coupling was
-  removed the same way for `snapshot verify`, `snapshot remove`, and
-  `remote info`, which carried it for the same outdated reason.

+  ([issue #96](https://git.eeqj.de/sneak/vaultik/issues/96)). The seven
