Padmé obfuscation is inaccessible from the UI

[MultisampledNight]

#8718 introduced Padmé padding via testing for SPEC=250, but it looks this was never included in a UI roundtrip test, so the ArgumentTypeError here fires anyway:

borg/src/borg/compress.pyx

Lines 713 to 722 in 32c9ce8

	elif self.name == 'obfuscate':
	if 3 <= count <= 5:
	level = int(values[1])
	if not ((1 <= level <= 6) or (110 <= level <= 123)):
	raise ArgumentTypeError("level must be >= 1 and <= 6 or >= 110 and <= 123")
	self.level = level
	compression = ','.join(values[2:])
	else:
	raise ArgumentTypeError("bad arguments")
	self.inner = CompressionSpec(compression)

MVCE as shell session

Positive test: Does creating a repository with Padmé compression as documented in borg help compression work?

 = export BORG_REPO=repo
 = borg init -e none
 = echo meow > file
 = borg create ::test ./file -C obfuscate,250,none
usage: borg create [...]
borg create: error: argument -C/--compression: level must be >= 1 and <= 6 or >= 110 and <= 123
 = borg list
 = # entirely empty

Nope, it doesn't.
Negative test: Does it work with e.g. SPEC=123?

 = borg create ::test ./file -C obfuscate,123,none
 = borg list
test    Tue, 2026-02-03 20:36:24 [...]

Yep, it does.

Other things

Mistakes like these happen, thanks for making borg either way!! It was and is the grounds for my first scripted backup, taking off a huge bit from my daily mental load =^.^=

Seeing that this is still on master and hence in to-be 2.0 code, I'd gladly to type up a PR cleaning up the parsing and fixing this in the process if you want me to!

Thanks for finding/reporting this!

Need to be checked/fixed in master as well as in 1.4-maint. Adding a test would also be good.
