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.

 # Completed Steps
 
+- 2026-09-21: Stopped `prune` from reporting a failed row count as 0
+  ([issue #96](https://git.eeqj.de/sneak/vaultik/issues/96)). The seven
+  `getTableCount` reads in `PruneDatabase` discarded their error, so a
+  query that could not run became a plausible `0` and the before/after
+  delta computed from it looked like real work. Each read now logs at
+  warn on failure and renders as `unknown`, never `0`, so an empty table
+  is distinguishable from one that could not be queried. The counts have
+  no `--json` representation — under `--json` the summary is suppressed
+  entirely — so nothing there can show a false `0`.
+
+- 2026-09-21: Made the s3 storage backend report a missing object as
+  `storage.ErrNotFound`, like the `file` and `rclone` backends and as the
+  `Storer` interface documents. `S3Storer.Get` and `Stat` returned the raw
+  AWS SDK error, so `errors.Is(err, storage.ErrNotFound)` was false on s3
+  and callers branched differently per backend. Added a small `s3.IsNotFound`
+  helper (reused by `HeadObject`) and a test that a missing key maps to
+  `ErrNotFound`
+  ([issue #129](https://git.eeqj.de/sneak/vaultik/issues/129)).
+- 2026-09-21: Fixed `verify --deep` reporting healthy snapshots as
+  corrupt. Its final blob-integrity check hashed the encrypted
+  downloaded bytes with a single SHA256 and compared that to the blob
+  ID, which is the double SHA256 of the plaintext, so the two could
+  never match. It now hashes the decompressed plaintext and compares the
+  double SHA256. Added a test that backs up a real snapshot, deep-verifies
+  it, then flips a byte in one stored blob and confirms deep verification
+  then fails

+- 2026-09-21: Collapsed the two duration parsers into one and fixed the
+  `--older-than` months example
+  ([issue #123](https://git.eeqj.de/sneak/vaultik/issues/123)). Two
+  functions named `parseDuration` existed with different grammars;
+  `snapshot purge --older-than` and `--keep-newer-than` both already went
+  through the one in `internal/vaultik`, while the richer copy in
+  `internal/cli/duration.go` was reachable only from its own test. Kept
+  the live-path parser and deleted the unused one, so no flag's accepted
+  grammar changes. The trap the issue was filed over: `README.md`
+  documented `6m` as the months example for `--older-than`, but `m` is
+  minutes, so the documented command deleted every snapshot older than
+  six minutes on a destructive flag. Corrected the doc to `6mo` and put
+  both flags' help text on one example list that states `m` is minutes
+  and `mo` is months. The surviving parser now rejects negatives, which
+  it previously accepted (`-5h`) or silently made positive (`-5d`).
+  Table-driven tests cover every unit, `6m` as six minutes, `6mo` as 180
+  days, and rejection of a bare number, an unknown unit, and a negative.
