#### Problem
There's no way to get incremental snapshot information from RPC.
#### Summary of Changes
- Add new RPC method, `getHighestSnapshotSlot` that returns a `SnapshotSlotInfo`, which contains both the highest full snapshot slot, and the highest incremental snapshot slot _based on_ the full snapshot.
- Deprecate old RPC method, `getSnapshotSlot`
- Update API docs
Fixes#19579
#### Problem
Snapshot names are overloaded, and there are multiple terms that mean the same thing. This is confusing. Here's a list of ones in the codebase that I've found:
```
- snapshot_dir
- snapshots_dir
- snapshot_path
- snapshot_output_dir
- snapshot_package_output_path
- snapshot_archives_dir
```
#### Summary of Changes
For all the ones that are about the directory where snapshot archives are stored, ensure they are `snapshot_archives_dir`. For the ones about the (bank) snapshots directory, set to `bank_snapshots_dir`.

While reviewing PR #18565, as issue was brought up to refactor some code
around verifying the bank after rebuilding from snapshots. A new
top-level function has been added to get the latest snapshot archives
and load the bank then verify. Additionally, new tests have been
written and existing tests have been updated to use this new function.
Fixes#18973
While resolving the issue, it became clear there was some additional
low-hanging fruit this change enabled. Specifically, the functions
`bank_to_xxx_snapshot_archive()` now return their respective
`SnapshotArchiveInfo`. And on the flip side,
`bank_from_snapshot_archives()` now takes `SnapshotArchiveInfo`s instead
of separate paths and archive formats. This bundling simplifies bank
rebuilding.
