fix: make --output and --updatepaths tell the truth about TTFolderPath

Browse Source 
--output iterated all 156k active Blogs rows and printed a "does not exist or is
not set" skip line for each, which is nearly every blog in the crawl registry --
only the few hundred downloaded locally ever have a folder. The signal was
buried in six figures of noise.

GetAllBlogsWithTTFolderPath now selects only active blogs carrying a non-empty
path, so --output processes export targets and nothing else. When none exist it
says so once, names the database it read, points at --updatepaths, and returns
non-zero instead of reporting success. A stored path this machine cannot see is
now reported separately from an unset one, with the path shown, because the two
are fixed in different places. Paths are trimmed before Directory.Exists, which
stray whitespace in a .tumblr FileDownloadLocation would otherwise defeat.

Both writers counted optimistically. UpdateBlogPathsRunner printed its
per-blog success line and incremented its total from the metadata file parsing,
never checking whether the UPDATE matched a row; LegacyPostsDbImporter counted a
blog as copied even when the legacy TTFolderPath was NULL. Either could report
full success having written nothing -- which is consistent with TL.db holding
zero populated paths across all 156,492 active blogs despite 20,679 posts having
merged. SetBlogTTFolderPath now returns whether a row changed, and both callers
report written / already-correct / no-matching-row separately.

Verified against a throwaway database: no-paths case, export case (stale .txt
rotated to .bak, per-PostType files, date-sorted), missing-folder case,
--updatepaths honest counts, and an idempotent rerun reporting already-correct.
