snapshot: expose new delete flag in virsh

It would technically be possible to have virsh compute the list
of descendants of a given snapshot, then delete those one at
a time.  But it's complex, and not worth writing for a first
cut at implementing the new flags.

* tools/virsh.c (cmdSnapshotDelete): Add --children-only,
--metadata.
* tools/virsh.pod (snapshot-delete): Document them.

any children of this snapshot, but leave this snapshot intact. These

If I<--metadata> is specified, then only delete the snapshot metadata
maintained by libvirt, while leaving the snapshot contents intact for
access by external tools; otherwise deleting a snapshot also removes
the data contents from that point in time.
