The remote path date folder used UTC, so backups taken after local
midnight in non-UTC zones landed in the previous day's folder. Use the
container timezone (TZ), like the scheduler already does.

Back up and restore plain directories, alongside the database sources.
Files source and Archive (P0)
- `files` type: absolute path (not /), options.exclude and
options.one_file_system; walk + tar.gz with symlinks kept as links,
special files skipped, unreadable entries fail the run.
- Mirror restore: archive validated first, then everything not excluded
is wiped (mount points and special files kept) and the archive is
extracted, retrying without metadata on filesystems refusing chown/chmod.
- Windows-safe platform helpers; helm extraVolumes/extraVolumeMounts.
Universal rclone mapper (P1)
- rclone_target(storage) for s3, blob, gcs, drive, rclone and sftp; sftp
goes through it; rclone obscure reads the password from stdin.
Snapshots, restic (P2)
- restic in the image; repository per source and channel, password
derived from the master key (HKDF); stable host, bs:<row> tags,
translated excludes; exit 3 fails and forgets the snapshot.
- Mirror restore with `restic restore --delete`; restore payload carries
the encrypted channel; snapshot ids must be full ids.
- Engine in the ping and in scheduled task metadata.
One locked method per source (spec A)
- databases.json declares options.method (archive, snapshot, sync),
reported in the ping for local sources only.
- Sync: rclone sync per channel onto <folder>/sync/<id>/current, refuses
an empty source, reports transferred/deleted counters.
Local channel (spec B)
- Snapshots and Sync reach the dashboard's local storage through its
append-only restic REST server and its WebDAV server.
Security
- Strict rclone config validation: one section, no duplicate keys, no
command, credential or host-file keys, no quoted values, valid backend
type, blocked backends.
- Scheduled task metadata (decrypted storages) is no longer logged.
