So a working variant which reexecs into the snapd snap:

and a variant that uses a local deb but fails:

cannot set capabilities: Operation not permitted
And a log from my VM:
> root@u3:~# SNAPD_DEBUG=1 snap run hello

Why cap_fowner is missing in your scenario with the deb?
And why do you have cap_perfrmon?
