function Get-DbaDatabaseSnapshot {
    <#
.SYNOPSIS
Get database snapshots with details
 
.DESCRIPTION
Retrieves the list of database snapshot available, along with their base (the db they are the snapshot of) and creation time
 
.PARAMETER SqlInstance
The SQL Server that you're connecting to.
 
.PARAMETER SqlCredential
Credential object used to connect to the SQL Server as a different user
 
.PARAMETER Database
Return information for only specific databases
 
.PARAMETER ExcludeDatabase
The database(s) to exclude - this list is auto-populated from the server
 
.PARAMETER Snapshot
Return information for only specific snapshots
 
.PARAMETER ExcludeSnapshot
The snapshot(s) to exclude - this list is auto-populated from the server
 
.PARAMETER EnableException
        By default, when something goes wrong we try to catch it, interpret it and give you a friendly warning message.
        This avoids overwhelming you with "sea of red" exceptions, but is inconvenient because it basically disables advanced scripting.
        Using this switch turns this "nice by default" feature off and enables you to catch exceptions with your own try/catch.
