feat(claw-migrate): harden OpenClaw import with plan-first apply, redaction, and pre-migration backup (#16911)

* feat(claw-migrate): harden OpenClaw import with plan-first apply, redaction, and pre-migration backup

Adopts four design patterns from OpenClaw's reciprocal migrate-hermes
importer so both migration paths have the same safety posture.

- **Refuse-on-conflict apply.** 'hermes claw migrate' now refuses to
  execute when the plan has any conflict items, unless --overwrite is
  set. Previously the user could say 'yes, proceed' and end up with a
  silent partial migration that skipped every conflicting item.
- **Engine-level secret redaction.** The report.json and summary.md
  written to disk (and --json stdout) run through a redactor that
  matches OpenClaw's key-name markers and value-shape patterns
  (sk-*, ghp_*, xox*-, AIza*, Bearer *). Prevents accidental API key
  leakage in bug reports and support channels.
- **Pre-migration tarball snapshot.** Apply creates one timestamped
  restore-point archive of ~/.hermes/ at ~/.hermes/migration/pre-migration-backups/
  before any mutation, excluding regenerable directories
  (sessions, logs, cache). Opt out with --no-backup.
- **Blocked-by-earlier-conflict sequencing.** If a config.yaml write
  hits conflict/error mid-apply, subsequent config-mutating options
  are marked skipped with reason 'blocked by earlier apply conflict'
  rather than attempting partial writes.
- **Structured warnings[] and next_steps[] on the report** — actionable
  guidance surfaces in both JSON output and summary.md.
- **--json output mode** — emits the redacted report on stdout for CI.

Also flips --preset full to NOT auto-enable --migrate-secrets. Users
now have to opt in to secret import explicitly, mirroring OpenClaw's
two-phase posture.

Status/kind/action constants are defined (STATUS_MIGRATED etc) with
values that match the existing strings the script emits, so the
report schema is backward-compatible. ItemResult gains a 'sensitive'
bool field that redaction and consumers can key off.

Validation: 26 new unit tests + 1 updated test in tests/skills/
test_openclaw_migration_hardening.py and test_claw.py cover redaction
(key markers, value patterns, recursion, on-disk), warnings/next_steps,
blocked-by-earlier sequencing, --json mode, and the preset-flip.
Manual E2E against a fake $HERMES_HOME with real-shaped secrets
confirmed: (1) secrets never appear in stdout or on disk,
(2) _cmd_migrate refuses apply when plan has conflicts,
(3) --overwrite proceeds past the guard and the backup tarball is
created, (4) --no-backup skips the archive.

Related docs: website/docs/guides/migrate-from-openclaw.md and
website/docs/reference/cli-commands.md updated to reflect the
preset-flip and new --no-backup flag.

* refactor(claw-migrate): reuse hermes backup system for pre-migration snapshot

Drops the inline tarball in hermes_cli/claw.py in favor of
hermes_cli.backup.create_pre_migration_backup(), which shares an
implementation with create_pre_update_backup via a new
_write_full_zip_backup helper.  Benefits:

- Consistent exclusion rules with hermes backup (_EXCLUDED_DIRS,
  _EXCLUDED_SUFFIXES, _EXCLUDED_NAMES — single source of truth).
- SQLite safe-copy via _safe_copy_db (state.db restores cleanly).
- Zip format restorable with 'hermes import <archive>'.
- Lives under ~/.hermes/backups/pre-migration-*.zip alongside
  pre-update-*.zip — one place for all snapshot archives.
- Auto-prune rotation with separate keep counters (pre-migration
  keeps 5, pre-update keeps 5, they don't touch each other's files).

7 new tests in tests/hermes_cli/test_backup.py lock the contract:
directory location, shared exclusion rules, _validate_backup_zip
acceptance (i.e. restorable with 'hermes import'), non-recursive
into prior backups, rotation, missing-home handling, and the
invariant that pre-migration rotation never touches pre-update
backups.

Help text and docs updated — the restore hint now says
'hermes import <name>' instead of 'tar -xzf <archive> -C ~/'.

* chore(claw-migrate): use backup._format_size and drop duplicate output line

Minor polish using another existing primitive from hermes_cli.backup:

- Show backup archive size with _format_size (e.g. '(245 B)' or '(2.4 MB)')
  matching the format hermes backup already uses.
- Drop the duplicate 'Pre-migration backup saved' line after Migration
  Results — the earlier 'Pre-migration backup: <path> (<size>)' line
  already surfaces the path before apply runs.
