v0.3.5: log the recursive-delete failure instead of swallowing it

delete_snapshot_tree tries one recursive delete first, then falls back to sweeping
the tree by name. The exception from the fast path was discarded.

That failure is usually benign -- stock's finally already removed the parent once
our mounts were released, which is exactly what the sweep exists to handle. But if
the cause were anything else, this was the only place it was ever visible, and it
went straight to /dev/null. The sweep would then report some different, downstream
symptom. It is now logged before falling through.

Also annotated the two remaining static-analysis findings as considered rather than
leaving them to be re-litigated every audit: subprocess is always invoked in list
form (no shell, so ZFS dataset names cannot inject), and a partial `systemctl` path
is moot in a script that only ever runs as root.

Extended ruleset (E,F,W,B,S,SIM,UP,C4,RET,ARG,A,ISC) and shellcheck -S style both
report zero. 132 tests.

 # Changelog
 
+## v0.3.5 — 2026-07-13
+
+### Changed
+
+- `delete_snapshot_tree` swallowed the error from its recursive-delete fast path.
+  That failure is *usually* just "parent already gone" — stock's `finally` winning
+  the race once our mounts are released, which the by-name sweep then handles. But
+  if the cause were anything else, this was the only place it was visible, and it
+  went straight to `/dev/null`. It is now logged before falling through.
+
+- Annotated the two remaining static-analysis findings as considered-and-accepted
+  rather than leaving them to be re-litigated: `subprocess` is always called in
+  list form (no shell, so ZFS dataset names cannot inject), and the partial
+  `systemctl` path is moot in a script that only runs as root.
+
+## v0.3.4 — 2026-07-13
+
+### Changed
+
+- **One implementation of apply/revert (`patch/mw_patch.py`).** The "strip the
+  `TRUECLOUD_PATCH` block" logic existed twice — in `apply.sh`'s heredoc and in an
+  inline heredoc in `uninstall.sh` — and the uninstall copy was the untested one.
+  That is exactly how the two could have drifted apart, with `apply.sh` reverting
+  one set of files and `uninstall.sh` another. Both now call the same tested
+  module (17 new tests, including that `revert_nested` never touches `restic.py`,
+  which belongs to the providers module and whose removal would silently break B2
+  backups).
+
+  `apply.sh` imports it fail-safe: if it cannot, the backend patch is skipped and
+  middlewared starts stock, which is this script's whole design principle. The
+  import uses `sys.path.append`, never `insert(0)` — prepending would give
+  `patch/` precedence over the stdlib for that interpreter, so a future
+  `patch/json.py` would shadow the real `json` and break the boot.
+
+### Docs
+
+- The README's `create_task.py` example still taught `--password <secret>`, which
+  is how a security fix quietly fails to land. It now shows `--password-stdin`.
