Keep the progress line of a multi-path snapshot within 100% (closes #271)

One progress reporter spans every path of a snapshot. Its counts of
files and bytes processed run across all the paths, while the totals
they were divided by were reset to each path's own, so a second path
smaller than the first showed more than 100% and an ETA of `unknown`.
The totals now add up over the paths scanned so far. The rate behind
the ETA is measured from the bytes processed since the current path's
scan phase ended, so a later path's scan phase does not lower it.
SetTotalSize is renamed AddTotalSize because it now adds.

The issue says the ETA went negative; it was computed negative and
printed as `unknown`.

 # Completed Steps
 
-- 2026-10-13: Counted a file as deleted only when the previous snapshot
-  of the same name had it
-  ([issue #304](https://git.eeqj.de/sneak/vaultik/issues/304)). The
-  deleted figure of a backup counted every file in the local index under
-  the source path that the walk did not find. That took in files the
-  snapshot excludes but another snapshot backs up, and files deleted
-  long ago, which every later backup, and the first backup of another
-  name over the same path, reported as deleted again. A file is now
-  counted only when the previous completed snapshot of the same name
-  lists it and the walk did not find it, and an excluded file is never
-  counted.
-
-- 2026-10-13: Made `snapshot remove` fail for a snapshot that does not
-  exist ([issue #293](https://git.eeqj.de/sneak/vaultik/issues/293)).
-  The command never checked the ID: it reported the snapshot removed
-  from the local database and from the destination store and exited 0,
-  under `--json`, `--dry-run` and `--local-only` too. An ID that names
-  no snapshot in the local index or on the destination store is now an
-  error; with `--local-only`, the snapshot must be in the local index.
-  The command now reports a removal from either side only when one
-  happened, and `remote_removed` is true only when metadata was deleted.
-
-- 2026-10-12: Bound the local index to the destination an `s3.*` config
-  names ([issue #298](https://git.eeqj.de/sneak/vaultik/issues/298)).
-  Only `storage_url` was checked, so after `s3.bucket` or `s3.prefix`
-  changed, the next backup treated every chunk as already stored,
-  uploaded nothing, and completed a snapshot that could not be restored.
-  Without `storage_url`, the local index is now bound to `s3.endpoint`,
-  `s3.bucket` and `s3.prefix`, and a change is refused as a changed
-  `storage_url` is.
-
-- 2026-10-12: Rejected a retention duration longer than about 292 years
-  ([issue #289](https://git.eeqj.de/sneak/vaultik/issues/289)). The
-  number given to `--older-than` or `--keep-newer-than` was multiplied
-  by the length of its unit with no limit, so from `293y`, `15251w`,
-  `3559mo` or `106752d`, or a sum of parts such as `200y200y`, the
-  result wrapped to a negative duration. The cutoff then lay in the
-  future, every snapshot of the name was deleted, the one just made
-  included, and the command exited 0. Such a duration is now rejected
-  as invalid and nothing is deleted.
-
-- 2026-10-08: Made a backup cancelled under `--skip-errors` stop at once
-  ([issue #286](https://git.eeqj.de/sneak/vaultik/issues/286)). After
-  Ctrl-C or SIGTERM, phase 2 treated the cancellation error from each
-  remaining file like an unreadable file: it opened the file, printed an
-  error line for it, counted it as failed and went on to the next one.
-  The run now stops at the first file after the cancellation, and no
-  file is counted as failed because of it.
-
-- 2026-10-08: Made `remote nuke` delete the `.partial` files that
-  uploads cut off part-way leave on the destination store
-  ([issue #281](https://git.eeqj.de/sneak/vaultik/issues/281)). The
-  file and rclone listings skip such a file, so the command left it in
-  place and still reported the store empty. It now removes them under
-  `metadata/` and `blobs/` as its last step.
-
-- 2026-10-08: Made a local index error while recording a directory or
-  symlink stop a backup under `--skip-errors`
-  ([issue #284](https://git.eeqj.de/sneak/vaultik/issues/284)). Phase 2
-  only records such an entry in the local index, since it has no data
-  to open or read, but an error doing so was skipped like an unreadable
-  file. The snapshot then completed without the entry, and a restore
-  did not recreate it. The error now stops the backup, as it does
-  without the flag.
-
-- 2026-10-08: Counted a file that a backup could not store as failed
-  ([issue #280](https://git.eeqj.de/sneak/vaultik/issues/280)). A file
-  that phase 1 counted and phase 2 could not open, because it was
-  unreadable under `--skip-errors` or removed in between, was reported
-  in the summary as unchanged with its bytes as backed up, and the
-  `snapshots` row's `file_count` and `total_size` included it. The
-  summary now counts it as failed, and its data total and the row leave
-  it out.
-
-- 2026-10-08: Made `remote info` report a snapshot's blob count and
-  blob size as unknown when its manifest cannot be read
-  ([issue #272](https://git.eeqj.de/sneak/vaultik/issues/272)). The
-  orphan figures were already unknown in that case, but the snapshot's
-  row still gave 0 blobs and 0 B, in the table and in `--json`. The row
-  now reads `unknown` and `--json` gives `null`. A directory with no
-  manifest still shows 0, since the orphan figures count its blobs as
-  orphaned.
-
 - 2026-10-08: Kept the progress line of a snapshot with more than one
   path within 100%
   ([issue #271](https://git.eeqj.de/sneak/vaultik/issues/271)). The
   bytes and files processed counted every path, but the totals they
   were divided by held only the current path's, so a second path
   smaller than the first showed more than 100% and an ETA of `unknown`.
-  The totals now add up over the paths scanned so far. The rate behind
-  the ETA restarts when each path's scan phase ends, so that phase does
-  not lower the rate while the path is processed; until then the rate
-  is the previous path's.
