feat(KB-648): enable parallel test execution across packages

- Optimize backup tests with fake timers and deterministic timestamps
- Enable Vitest fileParallelism in core, engine, cli, and dashboard packages
- Fix SettingsModal scope initialization regression covered by merge resolution
- Update affected dashboard and engine tests for the new parallel-friendly behavior
- Add a changeset and document test optimization patterns in AGENTS.md
