The list is even longer but I could not post it because of the forum limitations. So my question is what are these datasets for? Also how can I see the stored data? When I navigate to the path then there is no folder there.
 
I have the same issue and I'm not sure what these are for.

I mounted one (zfs set mountpoint=/rpool/test-mount rpool/ROOT/pve-1/0f4da397e0138d328fc376e071ae697606f13b6fdc2117d3d93d01d685f5743a) and it seems to be a full filesystem of sorts. I wonder if it's used for Proxmox upgrades? I'm not sure if I need it anymore.

Here are mine, minus the snapshots:

no, PVE will neither create snapshots for the root dataset, nor automatically create sub-datasets like that out of the box. I suggest taking a peak inside to see what they contain (and evaluate any third-party software/scripts you have installed that might cause their creation)..
 
Yes, it's the docker layers for containers. You should have created a separate dataset and mount it to /var/lib/docker before installing Docker on the ZFS PVE host. Then, everything docker related would be under that dataset.
