Implement stable-backup db export. #11

Closed rdaum closed 9 months ago

rdaum commented 1 year ago

Need a way to create a dump of the world state that can be used independent of the binary database, most especially useful for migration between versions of the DB format while things are still fairly unstable.

Does not necessarily have to be backwards compatible with LambdaMOO textdump

as of 43c6bbcc707337eec9194b0e48360762e7a20ada, support for a lambdamoo compatible textdump format is implemented for both reads and writes

The textdumps are even backwards compatible with with LambdaMOO; a moor textdump will import fine into 1.8.x server
