save/load state #2

Description

@emard

Just a wishlist,
I'd like to have save/load CPU/RAM state snapshots as a tool
to prepare collection of binary images for easy and fast loading
to FPGA emulation.
If there's no standardized binary form for image, i'd like to propose :)

"ORAO_SNAPSHOT\0": ascii 0-terminated header for file type.
follows multiple blocks of data, usually CPU state and RAM
0x01: block type 1 is header for CPU state
0x10: 8-bit length of data to follow not including this byte
.... 16 bytes of register states A X Y F SP PC etc.
0x02: block type 2 is header for RAM or ROM content
0x00 0x10: 16-bit starting address 0x1000
0x00 0x20: 16-bit length of block length thats follows, not including this length
... 0x2000 bytes of data
