Research direction
Review the existing snapshot installation process in sofa jraft, likely in classes like JSnapshot or SnapshotExecutor. The issue suggests implementing a resume mechanism to handle large snapshots that might timeout. Investigate how snapshot files are transferred via RPC (currently a single long call). Consider adopting a chunked transfer approach with offset tracking to allow resumption. Check the single existing comment for any additional context. Ensure compatibility with the current Raft implementation.
