"""Sovran restricted journal helper.

A root-owned, non-user-writable diagnostic tool that wraps journalctl with
a strict allowlist of safe flags.  Replaces the ``journalctl *`` sudo rule
in tech-support.nix.

Accepted flags:
  --unit / -u <name>        unit name (letters, digits, @, ., _, - only; .service suffix required)
  --lines / -n <N>          positive integer (max 10000)
  --priority / -p <level>   0-7 or emerg/alert/crit/err/warning/notice/info/debug
  --since <datetime>        ISO 8601 date/datetime (no paths, no filesystem roots)
  --until <datetime>        ISO 8601 date/datetime (no paths, no filesystem roots)
  --output / -o <format>    short | short-iso | cat | json | verbose

All other flags, paths, directories, roots, namespaces, and output
destinations are rejected with a non-zero exit code.
