CLOUDSTACK-9861: Expire VM snapshots after configured duration (#2026)

Default value of the account level global config vmsnapshot.expire.interval is -1 that conforms to legacy behaviour. A positive value will expire the VM snapshots for the respective account in that many hours.

> Currently, users can keep VM snapshots for an indefinite time period.  Long-lived snapshots can cause stability issues on the hypervisor.
> Requirement: Add a timeout for VM Snapshots, whereby snapshots get automatically deleted after a given time period. This would be available at account level, with a default value determined by a global setting.
