Release note

Previously sink.date-seperator accepted non-lowercased values like "DAY" but ignored them. Now they are accepted and treated the same as the lowercased versions.

Summary by CodeRabbit

• Improvements
  • Standardized date-separator configuration using supported typed values across storage sinks.
  • Added consistent JSON and TOML serialization, including case normalization and validation of unsupported values.
  • Improved date-separator handling when parsing storage paths and generating dated files.
  • Cloud-storage cleanup now reports configured separators more clearly.
  • Sensitive configuration masking now also covers large-message storage credentials.
• Bug Fixes
  • Invalid date-separator settings are now rejected with clear configuration errors.
  • Storage consumers consistently apply the configured separator during scans.
