fix(config-backup): origin is a stored random id, Settings refills after a settings restore, clis.json reloads

Review round 2 on #661: the hostname in the origin orphaned every snapshot when a Docker container was recreated, so the origin is a random id kept in <data dir>/config-backup-id; after restoring settings.json the Settings form is re-read from /api/settings so Save cannot write the old values back; the restore confirm names the files and the credential ones; clis.json is reloaded (reloadCliRegistry) and users.json needs no restart; API reference and route docs corrected.

## Config backups
Timestamped snapshots of the files that hold what a user has customized (`src/config-backup.ts`). On by default; a snapshot is taken at startup and whenever the tracked files' content changes (checked every 5 minutes), so there is one entry per real change. All three routes are admin only in multi-user mode (`403`), because the files include credentials. Responses carry file names and sizes, never content.

Settings (synced, in `settings.json`): `configBackupEnabled` (absent = on), `configBackupDir` (absolute path, `~` expanded; empty = `<data dir>/backups/config`), `configBackupKeepCount` (1–500, default 20), `configBackupKeepDays` (0–3650, default 30; `0` = no age limit). Retention only ever deletes snapshot folders Codeman made there, and never the newest one.

Only folders with that name and a valid manifest are listed, restored or pruned. Full guide: `docs/wiki/Config-Backups.md`.

| `GET` | `/api/config-backups/diff?from=&to=` | none | What differs between two states: `from`/`to` are a backup id or `current` (the running config; the default for `to`). `files[]` (`name`, `status` `added`/`removed`/`changed`/`unchanged`, `changes[]` of `path`, `kind`, `before`/`after`, `truncated`, `detail`) and `changed`. Credential values are never returned (`redacted: true`). `400` without `from`; `404` unknown id; `409` if a file fails its checksum. |
| `POST` | `/api/config-backups/:id/restore` | none | Put a snapshot's files back, atomically, after a `pre-restore` snapshot of the current ones. `404` unknown id; `409 CONFLICT` if a file fails its checksum (nothing changed). `restartRequired[]` names files the running server only reloads on restart. |

Returns `restored[]`, `untouched[]` (tracked files present now that the backup did not hold; left as they are), `safetySnapshot` (the `pre-restore` id) and `restartRequired[]` (files the running server only reads at start: `.env`, `push-keys.json`, `settings.json`). |
