Kevin Veen-Birkenbach c0e26275f8 Refactor defaults generation, credential creation, and inventory management

### Overview
This commit introduces a broad set of improvements across the defaults
generator, credential creation subsystem, inventory creation workflow,
and InventoryManager core logic.

### Major Changes
- Support empty or  config/main.yml in defaults generator and ensure that
  applications with empty configs are still included in defaults_applications.
- Add '--snippet' and '--allow-empty-plain' modes to create/credentials.py
  with non-destructive merging and correct plain-secret handling.
- Ensure empty strings for 'plain' credentials are never encrypted.
- Update InventoryManager to fully support allow_empty_plain and prevent
  accidental overwriting or encrypting existing VaultScalar or dict values.
- Add full-size implementation of cli/create/inventory.py including
  dynamic inventory building, role filtering, host_vars management, and
  parallelised credential snippet generation.
- Fix schemas (Magento, Nextcloud, OAuth2-Proxy, keyboard-color, etc.) to
  align with the new credential model and avoid test failures.
- Improve get_app_conf consistency by ensuring credentials.* paths are
  always resolvable for applications even when config/main.yml is empty.

### Added Test Coverage
- Unit tests for defaults generator handling empty configs.
- Full test suite for create/inventory.py including merge logic and
  vault-safe host_vars loading.
- Extensive tests for InventoryManager: plain-secret behavior,
  vault handling, and recursion logic.
- Update or remove outdated tests referencing old schema behaviour.

### Context
This commit is associated with a refactoring and debugging session documented here:

Nextcloud Client ☁️

Description

This Ansible role installs and configures the Nextcloud desktop client on Arch Linux systems. It also manages symbolic links from commonly used user directories (like Documents, Pictures, etc.) to the respective folders inside a cloud-synced Nextcloud directory. This ensures user data is seamlessly integrated into the synchronized cloud folder.

Overview

Targeting user environments on Arch Linux (e.g., Manjaro), this role sets up the official nextcloud-client and dynamically links key directories from the user's home folder to Nextcloud. This makes it easy to use the Nextcloud client without needing to manually configure folders.

Purpose

The purpose of this role is to automate the configuration of cloud-integrated user directories by ensuring that common folders like Downloads, Music, and Workspaces are transparently redirected into a centralized cloud structure. This makes it easier to maintain sys-bkp-friendly, cloud-ready setups for homelab and professional workflows.

Features

Installs the Nextcloud Desktop Client: Uses pacman via the community.general.pacman module.
Symbolic Linking of User Folders: Maps home folders (e.g., Documents, Videos, Workspaces) into their Nextcloud equivalents.
Dynamic Cloud Directory Resolution: Builds the target cloud directory path from user and cloud variables.
Dump Folder Mapping: Links InstantUpload from the cloud to a ~/Dump folder for quick camera/file access.
