[RDF] Don't search for input branches when snapshotting Redefine.

hageboeck · hageboeck · commit 7a9d8c03ed33 · 2025-08-07T11:26:48.000+02:00
When columns got redefined, snapshot was trying to still find input
columns for the outputs. That should not be the case since none of the
properties of the input branch need to be transferred.
