* Make dry-run genuinely non-mutating

fs.rsync() now takes a real dry_run code path: every mutating call
(copy, delete, chmod, chown, utime) is skipped, and a missing dst_dir
is never created - the same comparison logic still runs so the yielded
actions match what a real run would do.

backup.initiate_backup() diffs each source directly against the latest
completed snapshot on dry-run, instead of building and discarding a
throwaway staging directory with real hardlinks. cleanup_old_backups()
no longer creates the repo-id file as a side effect of a dry-run.

cli.py skips lock acquisition entirely on dry-run (set_backups_lock()
writes PID/timestamp metadata, itself a mutation) and exposes the
retention policy via --keep-all/--keep-daily/--keep-weekly/
--keep-monthly/--keep-yearly.

* Address Copilot review: guard restore lock release, reject negative retention values

- Guard restore --dry-run's finally block the same way backup's is
  guarded, for symmetry (release_backups_lock() was already a safe
  no-op when unheld, but this makes the dry-run contract explicit
  rather than relying on that implementation detail).
- Reject negative --keep-* values via a dedicated argparse type: a
  negative threshold shifts retention comparisons into the future and
  can make cleanup treat every existing backup as deletable.
- Add a restore --dry-run lock-skip regression test, mirroring the
  existing backup one.
- Fix _snapshot_all_stats() in the new dry-run non-mutation test to
  also record the backups_dir root's own stat, not just its children.
