Description
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Currently I use revert.vm and have to specify the exact snapshot.
If I do changes / updates to the VMs I have to go though all those jobs again and have to point to the new snapshot.
Describe the solution you'd like
Would be a big time saver if there would be an job option to revert to the latest snapshot like in VMware.
Best would be if one could give one or even multiple vms as job parameter.
UPDATE: And in future if it will get ACL v2 + ObjectGroups an additional field instead of multiple VMs one could just give an ObjectGroup as parameter (https://xcp-ng.org/forum/topic/6644/acl-v2-allow-to-run-specific-job/4)
Describe alternatives you've considered
I have just found that it seems possible to sort by date (snapshot_time field) so it might be possible to add a new method like "revertLast" that takes a vm as parameter?

-
Take a look at a specific snapshot to see the available fields, note snapshot_time which is a [Unix timestamp](https://www.unixtimestamp.com/). -
Use a filter ([syntax documentation](https://xen-orchestra.com/docs/manage_infrastructure.html#filter-syntax)), example:
/rest/v0/vm-snapshots?filter=snapshot_time%3A>1669044124
Original revert method:
https://github.com/vatesfr/xen-orchestra/blob/master/packages/xo-server/src/api/vm.mjs#L1060
export const revert = defer(async function ($defer, { snapshot }) {
could be added?
export const revertLast = defer(async function ($defer, { vm, objectgroup }) {
if(objectgroup is not empty, use all from objectgroup + every given vm)
Additional context

ObjectGroups + ACL v2: objectgroup
