dillard d474050be0 Phase 0: per-user backup/restore through user_migration (spike E)
RepositoryExportDestination / RepositoryImportSource implement the
public OCP\UserMigration interfaces on top of the repository, so
user_migration's migrators (calendar, contacts, trashbin, account,
files) export straight into the encrypted repository.

Spike E (NC34): export 0.8s, unchanged second export stores nothing;
after deleting the user, import restores account, files (bit-identical),
calendar event and contact. Findings: calendars/address books come back
as 'migrated-*' with new object URIs; importing over an existing user
duplicates contacts and adds a migrated birthday calendar; creating the
user on import needs >128 MB (password_policy word list).

dillard bc16a186d5 Phase 0: repository on files_external storages without a mount (spike D)
ExternalStorageFactory builds storages with files_external's own
backends and auth mechanisms from an unsaved StorageConfig (as its
ConfigAdapter does), and StorageBackend adapts any IStorage to IBackend
(writeStream, seekable range reads, temp name + rename except on S3).
IBackend::put() now owns and always closes the stream, because
files_external's S3 writeStream closes it.

Spike D (NC34): S3 (SeaweedFS) and SFTP: 120 MiB backup ~6s, unchanged
run uploads nothing, restore bit-identical, no files_external mount
created, no temp files (max 12 KiB in /tmp). Works with files_external
disabled when its classes are loaded. Backup peak memory 85-89 MiB on
these targets (to investigate).

dillard 915e534ab2 Phase 0: logical DB dump/restore without external tools (spike C)
DbDumper reads every prefixed table through the Nextcloud connection in
one REPEATABLE READ (read-only) transaction, with keyset pagination on
the primary key, and streams each table as JSON lines into its own blob
stream (BlobWriter), so unchanged tables are deduplicated. Restore
replaces table contents in one transaction and resets PostgreSQL
sequences.

Spike C (NC34, PostgreSQL, standard image without pg_dump/pgsql ext):
300k-row table with bytea: dump 6.3s / 50 MiB peak, 94 MiB JSON -> 20 MiB
stored; unchanged second dump stores nothing; restore makes every table
checksum-identical and all 110 sequences continue above the maximum.

dillard 1839997972 Phase 0: repository format with packs, dedup and incremental runs (spike B)
Content-addressed repository on an IBackend (local implementation):
4 MiB blobs, deflate when it helps, each blob encrypted with its id as
associated data, ~32 MiB packs with an encrypted header, one index file
per pack, snapshots as encrypted JSON lines written last.

Spike B: 390 MiB tree, peak 54 MiB; unchanged run reads nothing; a 1 MiB
change in a 300 MiB file uploads one blob; full and partial restore are
bit-identical; tampering is detected.

dillard 07e3d263b4 Phase 0: skeleton, streaming encryption (spike A)
Repository skeleton (app id ng_backup, AGPL-3.0-or-later), KeyRing with
KDF subkeys, keyed blob ids and Argon2id key wrapping, and StreamCipher
(secretstream XChaCha20-Poly1305, framed, bounded memory).

Spike A: 1 GiB round trip with memory_limit=64M, peak < 2 MiB, ~160/122
MiB/s; tampering, truncation, wrong key/passphrase are rejected.
