Security, uninstall, and legacy migration

Security

• No secrets in the git repository; cloud data stays on your drive / account.
• Config is validated on load: only # comments and KEY=VALUE; foreign lines abort execution.
• chmod 600 on ssr.conf and the rendered launchd plist.
• SSR_DISABLE_GATEKEEPER=true is opt-in; default is off.
• No curl ... | bash except Homebrew's own bootstrap during install.

Uninstall

ssr schedule off
rm -f ~/.local/bin/ssr
rm -rf ~/.config/ssr ~/.local/state/ssr

Cloud backup data is not removed.

Migration from system_sync.sh / system_restore.sh

Legacy	New
system_sync.sh	ssr sync
system_restore.sh <Brewfile>	ssr restore <Brewfile>
Manual cron / Lingon	ssr schedule on
Hard-coded iCloud path	SSR_CLOUD_PROVIDER in ssr.conf
Inline .macos block	config/macos-defaults.sh (override with SSR_MACOS_DEFAULTS)
