Jarek Kowalski 1f1682b2cc Snapshot checkpointing (#410) ...

* snapshot: support for periodic checkpointing of snapshots in progress

For each snapshot that takes longer than 45 minutes, we trigger
internal cancellation, save the manifest and restart the snapshot
at which point all files will be cached.

This helps ensure the property that no file or directory objects
in the repository remain unreachable from a snapshot root for more than
one hour, which is important from GC perspective.

* nit: unified spelling 'cancelled' => 'canceled'
