kshitijk4poor 9a6417cd6b fix(backup): decide full-zip publish target once and pin all-failed keep
_write_full_zip_backup_locked chose clean/salvage/discard in _publish_path
and then re-derived the same choice with an inverse test after the with
block. If only one copy changed later, .stat() could hit a path that was
never published and raise out of a "never raises" helper. _publish_path now
records the destination and the stat/return reuse it.

The `destination is None` discard branch in _atomic_output_path had no
teeth: publishing the empty all-failed archive over out_path kept every
test green. The serialization test now asserts an all-failed automatic run
leaves the previous good archive's members unchanged. Also refresh a stale
comment that still described a renamed salvage archive.
