Motivation
Closes #5118
Right now snapshots are not persisted, and snapshots created after the snapshot to be deleted are also deleted.
Solution
Remove this legacy behavior by just persisting snapshots.
We now have a few more clones as a result of this, but it should be OK—this is an infrequent operation.
