## Ejemplo

```python
# Archivar snippet obsoleto
result = metabase_archive_snippet(client, 42)
print(result["archived"])  # True

# Listar snippets activos despues de archivar
active = metabase_list_snippets(client, archived=False)
assert all(not s["archived"] for s in active)
```

## Notas

Los snippets archivados no aparecen en el autocomplete de queries nativas en el editor de Metabase.
Las cards que ya referencian el snippet siguen funcionando correctamente despues de archivar.
Para desarchivar, usar metabase_update_snippet(client, snippet_id, archived=False).
