snapshot: append timestamp with snapname
Appending GMT time stamp with snapname by default.
If no-timestamp flag is given during snapshot creation,
then time stamp will not append with snapname;
Initial consumer of this feature is Samba's Shadow Copy
feature. This feature allows Windows user to get previous
revisions of a file. For this feature to work snapshot
names under .snaps folder (USS) should have timestamp in
following format appended:
@GMT-YYYY.MM.DD-hh.mm.ss
PS: https://www.samba.org/samba/docs/man/manpages/vfs_shadow_copy2.8.html
This format is configurable by Samba conf file. Due to a
limitation in Windows directory access the exact format
cannot be used by USS. Therefore we have modified the file
format to:
_GMT-YYYY.MM.DD-hh.mm.ss
Snapshot scheduling feature also required to append timestamp
to the snapshot name therefore timestamp is appended in
snapshot creation itself instead of doing the changes in
snapview server.
