SN properties not "restored" when running binary.restore() #308
New binary attributes like first_SN_already_occurred have been added to step_SN from tilt tracking. When restoring binaries that have gone through SN to e.g. sample many kicks - these variables can break the binary in future evolution. This issue is to consider the scope of restore binary method to reset some of these properties. E.g. we may choose to explicitly not reset natal kick array.
