Vanee is Vader's servant. Its also thought that he later became a member of the Imperial Ruling council that we saw on the death star.
I don't believe they're the same people, but the name choice might be another nod to the OT.
I have my doubts that he's Snoke. I still think that Snoke wasn't in the original trilogy and is either a new creation, or someone that we've seen somewhere else.
However it would play into my theory that Snoke is not force sensitive at all and needs Kylo's power to maintain his power. He knows the Force but can't use it.
