Backport: #6477
When a precopy snapshot is active, the top-of-chain backing's filename is the child disk (foo-000001.vmdk) while forklift passes the base path (foo.vmdk). The old top-only path comparison missed this and the populator fell through to the VMDK/vmkfstools fallback. vmkfstools still produced correct bytes (it opens foo.vmdk on the host and VASA serves the snap-vVol), but at host-mediated speed.
Walk the Parent chain and return the BackingObjectId of the node whose filename matches the caller's vmdkPath. Warm precopy now matches at the parent, identifies the snap-vVol, and copies it via Pure REST.
