List VPS backup schedules

Return scheduled-backup configuration, retention settings, recent schedule history, limits, and action gates. Get {id} from GET /api/v2/vps. Use schedules[].id as {scheduleId} for deletion. Only one schedule can be active per VPS; POST updates an existing schedule with the same frequency. Scheduled backups create offsite, longer-term recovery images and can take longer to create or restore than snapshots. Use snapshot schedules only for short-lived local block-on-write rollback points.
