Store the internal state in the snapshot.
-
Created a class to hold the node's internal state and serialize. Right now, it has only the members of the protocol.

Store the internal state in the snapshot.
A step towards solving #189.
This is just a first (simpler) approach, storing the information at the beginning of the snapshot. It has the problem that can not parse snapshots of previous versions.
Another approach I can see is, to avoid that problem, we can create a separate structure working the same way as the snapshot right now, but only to the node's state.
Another thing, after we decide above, I want to add a byte to introduce a parser version to the snapshot to make it easier to handle future changes.
