Renz cd948e84f1 fix: Implement database creation in RestoreSingle 
BUG #1: restore single --create flag was not implemented
- Added ensureDatabaseExists() call when createIfMissing=true
- Database is now created before restore if --create flag is used
- Added TEST_PLAN.md with comprehensive testing matrix

Tested: restore single --create flag now works correctly
Before: ERROR: database does not exist
After: Database created successfully and restored

DBBackup Comprehensive Test Plan

Date: November 10, 2025
Goal: Test all command-line and interactive functions to ensure stability

Issues Found

🐛 BUG #1: --create flag not implemented in single database restore

Severity: HIGH
Location: internal/restore/engine.go - RestoreSingle() function
Description: The createIfMissing parameter is accepted but never used. Function doesn't create target database.
Expected: When --create flag is used, should create database if it doesn't exist
Actual: Fails with "database does not exist" error
Fix Required: Add database creation logic before restore
