Issue body

### What needs to get done If a build snap is installed from the host system, offer a way to use the host system's snap in the build container ### Why it needs to get done This would help people who are developing content or SDK snaps test their snaps much more quickly without using `--destructive-mode`. It also means large sdk snaps like the gnome and kde snaps don't need to be re-downloaded for each new app being snapped.
