refactor: tidy the command's setup, the update command and instance reach

- main: the subcommand is a name rather than nil-or-empty argument slices; the cache file and start directory are worked out once; config values with a default go through one valueOr helper.
- The link handler's --config argument comes from one configArgs helper.
- lazysecrets update parses its flags like the other subcommands, so -check and --check=true work too, and tells a development build by its dev version.
- Instance reach is named (unreachable, switchable, inView), tmux client activity is compared as a number, and the best client loop starts from the first.
- update: serverTimeout (it bounds the checksums request too), and parentheses in the platform check.

+lazysecrets works outside its own window too: `lazysecrets get` reads a
+value for scripts, and `lazysecrets list` lists everything for fzf, editor
+pickers and your own tools. Both take the [links](sharing.md) lazysecrets
+copies and shares. For Neovim, there's
+[lazysecrets.nvim](https://github.com/karleinarb/lazysecrets.nvim).
+
+## Reading a value
+
+`lazysecrets get <link>` prints the value, for scripts and pipes:
+
+```sh
+export DB_PASSWORD=$(lazysecrets get lazysecrets://azure/kv-app-prod.vault.azure.net/secrets/db-password)
+lazysecrets get lazysecrets://azure/kv-app-prod.vault.azure.net/secrets/db-password | kubectl create secret generic db --from-file=password=/dev/stdin
+```
+
+It reads the value directly, with your az accounts (the one that last read
+it first), the Databricks profile for the workspace, or sops in your clone
+of the repo; a version in the link reads that version. `--account` tries
+that account first, as [`list`](#listing-for-fzf-and-pickers) prints it.
+The value ends with a newline only on a terminal. When it can't read the
+value, it says why on stderr and exits with status 1.
+
+## Listing, for fzf and pickers
+
+`lazysecrets list` prints every source, vault and secret, one per line,
+tab-separated:
+
+| Field | |
+|---|---|
+| kind | `source`, `vault`, `secret`, `key` or `certificate` |
+| mark | ✗ when something's wrong (expired, or couldn't be read) or ⚠ when it expires soon; ★ when starred; ◷ when used lately (with `--recent`); and the provider's icon |
+| name | `platform-prod / kv-app-prod / db-password` |
+| status | why a vault or source couldn't be read, or that it has `expired` or `expires in 12d` (within `ui.expiryWarningDays`), or empty |
+| note | your note on it (`n` in lazysecrets), after a note icon (✎ without icons), or empty |
+| account | what it's listed through: an az account (`Azure:<user>/<tenant>`), `Databricks` or `Repos` |
+| link | its `lazysecrets://` link |
+
+What's cached prints at once, then what loads follows as it arrives: read
+it as a stream. Values are never listed. It stops quietly when the reader
+goes, like fzf after a pick. Kind stays the first field, and account and
+link the last two; new fields only ever go between. The mark has a field of
+its own so a search can leave it out: in fzf, `--nth` searches the name,
+so `^prod` finds names starting with prod.
+
+| Flag | |
+|---|---|
+| `--format json` | an object per line instead, for editor plugins (below) |
+| `--kind secret,vault` | only these kinds: `source`, `vault`, `secret`, `key`, `certificate`; lists only other kinds need aren't loaded |
+| `--cached` | only what's cached, at once: nothing is loaded from Azure or Databricks |
+| `--max-age 2m` | load cached lists older than this again |
+| `--errors=false` | leave out the vaults and sources it couldn't read |
+| `--color never` | no colours, for scripts |
+| `--icons=false` | no provider icons |
+| `--stars=false` | no ★ before starred names (in `favouriteColor`) |
+| `--notes=false` | no note icon before a note |
+| `--recent` | ◷ before names used lately, in `mutedColor`; default `ui.recentIcon` |
+| `--expiry=false` | no expiry: not in the status, and no ✗ or ⚠ for it |
+
+With `--format json`, each line is an object with these fields; new ones
+may be added:
+
+| Field | |
+|---|---|
+| `link`, `kind`, `account` | as above |
+| `error` | why it couldn't be read, only then |
+| `provider` | `azure`, `databricks` or `repo` |
+| `path` | the names: `["platform-prod", "kv-app-prod", "db-password"]` |
+| `accountLabel` | the account's short name, when several az accounts are signed in |
+| `starred` | starred for this account |
+| `note` | your note on it, if any |
+| `reference` | how config refers to a secret: `@Microsoft.KeyVault(SecretUri=…)` or `{{secrets/scope/key}}` (`Y` in lazysecrets) |
+| `url` | its web page, in the Azure portal or the Databricks workspace (`o` in lazysecrets) |
+| `recent` | used lately, as Recent (`R`) lists: in the last 90 days |
+| `lastUsed`, `uses` | when it was last used, and how often; only when `recent`, to sort by |
+| `expires` | when a secret, key or certificate expires, if it does (Azure) |
+| `enabled` | `false` for a disabled one; only where the provider says (Azure) |
+
+`lazysecrets open --action go --account <account> <link>` opens one in
+lazysecrets without asking what to do or which account, ending in the
+secrets list, like Go to.
