Fix "snapdev" property inheritance behaviour

When inheriting the "snapdev" property to we don't always call
zfs_prop_set_special(): this prevents device nodes from being created in
certain situations. Because "snapdev" is the only *special* property
that is also inheritable we need to call zfs_prop_set_special() even
when we're not reverting it to the received value ('zfs inherit -S').
