provide backup/restore of full pilosa data
Description
The current pilosa backup command requires an index,frame, and view names as input. In order to perform a complete backup, every view must be manually requested. This could be greatly simplified if the command handled all the details and produced a nice compressed file that could be restored at a later time.
Success criteria (What criteria will consider this ticket closeable?)
pilosa backup --uri HOST:IP --outputDirectory /mnt/backup/ #this will produce a file /mnt/backup/backup20171011.pak pilosa restore --uri HOST:ip backup20171011.pak
