Description
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Problem statement: in order to clone a database using the operator I must provide the snapshot name i wish to clone from.
The information about the existing snapshots is not available via the NDB operator.
Describe the solution you'd like
I would like to see current valid snapshots of a database under the status section of the database CRD.
This should be "easy" to collect by the NDB operator (api call to list snapshots from database timemachine).
Describe alternatives you've considered
As an alternative, database snapshots could be listed as separate CRDs.

Research direction
Start by locating the database CRD status definition and the operator's database Timemachine snapshot-list API call. Determine how current valid snapshots should be represented in status and how the operator refreshes that information. Done means valid snapshots are visible under the database CRD status for use when cloning a database.
