+- Excluded informational jobs (such as License Key and other non-backup jobs) from all report outputs.
+- Added configurable filters to reports to select which backup jobs are included.
+- Added configurable filters to reports to select which backup types are included.
+- Ensured selected job and type filters are consistently applied to snapshot and summary reports.
+- Improved report relevance by limiting output to meaningful backup-related data only.
