Looks quite good already! And I like the addition of the entry for
backup too.

Since the API request is async, the success handler will only be called
after the snapshotFeature variable has already been read from in the
code below.

The condition should be negated

Style nit: blank line here should be removed

Nit: could also just be 'false' for easier readability (it's always an
isCreate, so it should never have viewonly)

This should rather check only for the backup capability

Same comments as for the lxc context menu apply for the VM context menu
