Skip the chmod-based unreadable-sidecar tests when running as root
The Gitea runner image executes jobs as root, and chmod(0) cannot make a file
unreadable for root (CAP_DAC_OVERRIDE) — the two tests failed there while
passing on GitHub's non-root runner. Skipping as root keeps the scenario
exercised everywhere it is constructible.

"""Tests for nested-dataset snapshot staging.
Two rules are under test above all else:
1. A tree that cannot be staged completely must fail LOUDLY. A silently
incomplete backup is the exact failure that stock TrueNAS's "no further
nesting" guard exists to prevent.
2. Every snapshot we cause to exist must be cleaned up. ``zfs.snapshot.delete``
is non-recursive by default and stock calls it with no options, so a
recursive snapshot would otherwise orphan one snapshot per descendant dataset
on EVERY run.

Five tests silently did. `gc_stale_snapshots`'s DEFAULT lister runs
`zfs list -t snapshot -r Tap` -- and on the NAS, `Tap` is the real pool, with
2148 snapshots and a genuine leaked `cloud_backup-5` snapshot in it. Those tests
passed on the dev box only because it has no `zfs` binary (FileNotFoundError,
swallowed by a broad except), and would have gone RED on the one machine the
release process requires them green on -- for reasons having nothing to do with
the code. The same code path calls `umount`.
Tests that need a system command inject one (`runner=` / `list_snapshots=`).
It RECORDS and asserts at teardown rather than raising, because raising would be
swallowed: `gc_stale_snapshots` catches broad `Exception` around its enumeration
(deliberately — it must fail toward collecting nothing). That swallow is exactly
what let five tests shell out unnoticed, so the check must survive it.

Porting the deleted private `zfs.dataset.query` to the public
`pool.dataset.query` looked obviously right: the method exists, it is
documented, iX will not delete it. Every test passed and `compat.py` went green
on TrueNAS 26.
It was wrong. The public query applies a VISIBILITY POLICY -- on a real box it
returns 205 of 274 datasets, hiding `ix-apps/*`, `.system/*` and `.ix-virt/*`.
On the production pool that is 84 of 270, and `ix-apps` holds LIVE APPLICATION
DATA. The staging plan would have omitted every one of them, and `plan_staging`
would never have seen them, so they would not even appear in `skipped`. A green
backup, silently missing data -- the precise failure this module exists to
prevent.
The snapshot query lies the same way, so the sweep would orphan one snapshot per
hidden dataset, forever.
Hence: READ from ZFS, MUTATE through middleware. These tests hold that line.
