Description

Currently only Global admin has the access of cloning a snapshot.

In AccessController,

  @Override
  public void preCloneSnapshot(final ObserverContext<MasterCoprocessorEnvironment> ctx,
      final SnapshotDescription snapshot, final HTableDescriptor hTableDescriptor)
      throws IOException {
    requirePermission(getActiveUser(ctx), "cloneSnapshot " + snapshot.getName(), Action.ADMIN);
  }

Snapshot owner should be able to clone it, need to add a check like,

SnapshotDescriptionUtils.isSnapshotOwner(snapshot, user)
