Description

Describe the bug richdocumentscode can in many cases not be installed via the web interface due to timeouts. As a result, richdocuments (rightly) suggests installing using occ if it doesn't work. See here:

https://github.com/nextcloud/richdocuments/blob/94dab7f3eac3a376645b0234cd3d22c21dd30031/src/components/AdminSettings.vue#L91

However, that command assumes that one has installed Nextcloud manually instead of using e.g. the snap, where the comand doesn't work. It should be trivial to check the $SNAP and $SNAP_NAME environment variables and print the proper command in that situation (sudo nextcloud.occ app:install richdocumentscode specifically), but I'm afraid I don't quite have the vue chops to pull it off.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Examine the AdminSettings.vue component, particularly the command generation around line 91. Check for SNAP and SNAP NAME environment variables and output the appropriate occ command for snap installations.
