Watchdog (scripts/utils/watchdog.py, com.lotto.watchdog.plist, daily
21:30) checks whether the latest draw or the trained models are older
than the launchd schedule allows and sends a Telegram alert - this
would have caught the Aug 15 update run that silently never fired
(the Mac was presumably asleep; launchd does not retry missed
StartCalendarInterval jobs), instead of that only surfacing on the
next manual check.
Also fixes a real path bug in LottoAPIUpdater.create_backup(): since
self.data_file already points into data/, joining "data","backups"
wrote backups to data/data/backups/ instead of data/backups/ - 73
backups (6.3MB) had been piling up there undetected for months, with
data/data/ only ever gitignored rather than the root cause fixed.
Merges the misplaced backups into the correct location and adds
retention (keep last 30) so backups no longer grow unbounded; applied
the same retention to Eurojackpot's updater in a matching commit
there, which didn't have the path bug but had the same unbounded
growth (85 backups, 2.4MB).
