Add autosave toggle to file menu #228

I really love working with Antimony, but I've been losing work to random crashes somewhat frequently. It's a price I'm willing to pay, but I figured I should try to find a workaround. I added an autosave toggle to the File menu that triggers a save once every minute while enabled, which works for my use case but could definitely be improved. I wanted to get some input as to whether you'd be interested in including a feature like this, and if so, what sort of behavior or settings you think would be appropriate. I started working on an additional settings menu to adjust frequency, overwrite vs sequentially numbered saves, save directory, etc., but didn't want to overthink it without some input :grin:

Let me know what you think, I use this software enough that I'm more than happy to put in some maintenance time on it.
