/systems/{id}/backups - List configuration backups for a system

GET /systems/{id}/backups
Bearer auth

Returns the list of configuration backups stored for the system, together with aggregate usage counters. Backups are produced by the appliance itself (see collect ingest endpoint) and consumed here read-only.

Each entry carries size, sha256, and uploaded_at. The peer IP observed at ingest is intentionally not exposed: on traffic that transits the translation proxy the recorded value would be the proxy's IP, and even when it is accurate it is a reconnaissance aid for higher-tier admins.

Access is gated by the same RBAC rules as GET /systems/{id}: the caller must belong to the organization that currently owns the system. After a cross-org reassignment, the new owner sees the full backup list and the previous owner loses visibility.
