Incremental backup and restore #185

Is this something that's supported in the library?

You can make a snapshot backup, which creates a file in the standard LMDB format (can be directly used as a DB if you want to restore it). But, LMDB does not currently have any support for incremental backup and restore. However, Howard Chu has mentioned that that might eventually be added: https://twitter.com/hyc_symas/status/1315651814096875520
