migrate --stop-before an already-applied migration is now an error

The CLI validated --stop-before names against both pending and applied
migrations, but Migrations.apply() only looked for the stop name among
pending ones - naming an applied migration passed validation and then
silently applied every migration after it, the exact outcome the option
exists to prevent. apply() now raises ValueError before applying
anything if a stop_before name matches an applied migration in its set;
names not in the set are still ignored, since unqualified CLI values are
offered to every set. The migrate command reports it as a clean error.
