Fix 15 remaining CodeQL path-injection and stack-trace-exposure alerts

Switch from resolve()+relative_to() to os.path.basename() reassignment,
which CodeQL recognizes as a path sanitizer that breaks the taint chain.
Also remove exception objects from backup_manager validate_backup return
strings to eliminate the stack-trace-exposure taint source.

Fixes alerts #227, #233, #234, #235, #237, #238, #239, #240, #241,
#242, #243, #244, #245, #246, #247.
