ZFS snapshots (#261).

Owner

This is currently beta-quality work for snapshotting ZFS filesystems (#261) from borgmatic such that those filesystems end up in a Borg archive at the original dataset path rather than the snapshot mount point path. That means that if your dataset is mounted at, say, /my/dataset, then the snapshotted data shows up in the Borg archive at my/dataset and not my/dataset/.zfs/snapshot/blah.

Dataset discovery currently works by expecting that any dataset mount points to backup are listed in borgmatic's source_directories.

Result

I have run this and it appears to work so far. Here are some logs:

Still to do

all TODOs and FIXMEs
do an organizational pass on the code
documentation
get existing unit tests passing again
add tests to cover new/changed code
audit branch diff for missing test coverage
additional error handling
lots more manual testing
