Swaminathan Balachandran updated HDDS-11452:
--------------------------------------------
    Description: 
OmSnapshotPurgeRequest updates the snapshot chain and also updates the cache & 
in case of any failure these changes are not rolled back. In case of checked 
exception thrown(This could be any exception ranging from proto exception or 
any random IOException), the request gobbles up the exception and returns an 
error response. The problem with this is, we have partially updated snapshot 
info table cache which is not coherrent with the snapshot chain and all these 
changes won't be flushed to disk. On restart this could lead to all sorts of 
snapshot chain & snapshot info corruption. 

The proposal here is to make the entire request atomic:

1) Update the snapshot chain & maintain the updated snapshot infos in local 
uncommitted space.

2) In case of an exception, roll back all deleted snapshots by putting it back 
to the snapshot chain(P.S. this needs to be done in the reverse order of 
removal) & return an error response.

3) If no exception is thrown, update the snapshot info table cache.

4) Send it to double buffer
