This is the implementation for allowing persistence snapshots to be optional when failing (issue #7382)
Changes
Setting snapshot-is-optional = true in the snapshot store configuration will allow Actors to continue if there is a failure loading the snapshot (https://doc.akka.io/libraries/akka-core/current//typed/persistence-snapshot.html#optional-snapshots)
