Description

Jira Link: DB-2228 When deleting schedules, we will want to delete all their associated snapshots. Right now we just have an API to delete a single snapshot, so we'll need to send N of these, fo the N snapshots. If we had an API which allows for a list of snapshot IDs, we could use it for both single snapshot and multiple snapshots cases.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate the current DeleteSnapshot function in the docdb codebase. Understand how it is called and how it interacts with tablet operations. Then design an enhanced API that accepts a list of snapshot IDs and iterates over them, reusing the existing deletion logic. Ensure proper error handling and unit tests.
