No notification system for backup failures

Priority: Medium
Component: cli.py, backup.py
Type: Feature

Description

If a backup fails (especially when run via cron), there's no mechanism to notify the user. Silent failures could lead to discovering weeks later that backups haven't been working.

Proposed Solution

Add optional notification support:

  1. Email notifications

    cura-te-ipsum -b /backups /data --notify-email user@example.com

  2. Webhook notifications

    cura-te-ipsum -b /backups /data --notify-webhook https://hooks.example.com/backup

  3. Log to syslog

    cura-te-ipsum -b /backups /data --syslog

  4. Integration with monitoring tools (healthchecks.io, UptimeRobot, etc.)

Could be configured in the config file (Issue #12).

Impact

Medium - Important for production/automated deployments.
