remove snapshot() path from Container

[vladsud]

Only summaries should be used.
There are some places (DDS) where we still use "snapshot" terminology & types - we should change that to use summaries.

As part of it, we should remove / move to r11 driver(s) all GIT specifics like FileMode and remove them from protocol-defintions.

@arinwt - FYI

I'm sure there are duplicates of this item :)
The most challenging part here would be fixing tooling, i.e. replay tool. It's a must to maintain it (tests would fail otherwise). We either need to move it to summaries, or do a conversion somewhere for it to still get snapshot when runtime talks summaries.

There is Container.snapshot() that needs to be removed.
There is also SharedObject.snapshotCore() and a bunch of implementations on derived classes.

Let's keep this item to track Container work, which is lower priority than #8013 that I created to track the more interesting part

Given we have completed some of the work around old snapshots, it may be good to time redefine scope of this ticket. And close it if needed.

Adding @scarlettjlee to this since she is working on related topic - #8460

[scarlettjlee]

The DDS work is done and I created a separate task for moving git code from protocol-definitions (#9003). So this issue should just be for removing snapshot from Container.

@ssimic2, do you want to keep this open until you do the removal after the deprecation? Otherwise we can close.
