tasks.py walks recursively to find tasks.json files but hits legacy files in archive/reference paths with incompatible schemas, killing the save operation via sys.exit(1). - Added _archive, _references, 01_Archive, raw to skip_dirs - Added strict=False mode to _read_json() — returns None with warning instead of hard exit for bulk operations - list/summary/find operations now gracefully skip malformed files - Direct operations (add, done, edit) still hard-fail on bad data

Summary
tasks.py walks recursively to find tasks.json files but doesn't skip archive/reference directories. Legacy files in these paths with incompatible schemas cause _read_json() to sys.exit(1), killing the entire save operation.

Test plan
Splits the minimal crash fix from #28. The v2→v3 migration subsystem remains in #28 for separate review.
