Sync the parent directory after the rename to make the snapshot durable.

save syncs the temporary file before the rename. It does not sync the containing directory afterward. A crash or power loss after rename can lose the new directory entry, so the server restarts with the old snapshot. Open the parent directory and call sync_all after the rename. On Unix this works with File::open on the directory.

The temporary file also stays on disk if write_all or sync_all fails. Remove it on those error paths.

Based on learnings: on Linux, fsync the temp file before rename and the containing directory afterward. Rename provides atomic replacement, not durability.

Proposed fix

-        std::fs::rename(&tmp_path, &self.path).map_err(|error| error.to_string())
+        std::fs::rename(&tmp_path, &self.path).map_err(|error| error.to_string())?;
+        #[cfg(unix)]
+        if let Some(parent) = self.path.parent() {
+            let dir = if parent.as_os_str().is_empty() {
+                std::path::Path::new(".")
+            } else {
+                parent
+            };
+            std::fs::File::open(dir)
+                .and_then(|dir| dir.sync_all())
+                .map_err(|error| error.to_string())?;
+        }
+        Ok(())

Update the save operation to remove the temporary file if writing or syncing it fails, then rename it and sync the containing directory on Unix so the new directory entry is durable. Handle paths with an empty parent as relative to the current directory, and preserve the existing error propagation.

- Line 52: Update the self-hosted `code-server` guidance in the API references
to distinguish the client-specific key names: document
`FRONTAL_CODE_SERVER_API_KEY` for the CLI and `FRONTAL_SERVER_API_KEY` for the
Slack connector, and retain the `x-api-key` option for other clients.
