[PVE-User] Cannot delete snapshot from aborted snapshot creation process

In the meantime I found `ceph osd lspools`, which lists

1 pve-pool1
2 cephfs_data
3 cephfs_metadata
4 device_health_metrics

(shouldn't one be able to see that somewhere in the PVE UI?)

and there doesn't seem to be any snapshots there:

$ rbd snap ls pve-pool1/vm-118-disk-1
$ rbd snap ls pve-pool1/vm-118-disk-0
$

I have deleted the snapshot from /etc/pve/qemu-server/118.conf and now 
it's also gone from the UI.

Thanks a lot, Frank
