10676b74dc vmm: Split VM config and VM state for snapshot/restore
In order to allow for human readable output for the VM configuration, we
pull it out of the snapshot, which becomes effectively the list of
states from the VM. The configuration is stored through a dedicated file
in JSON format (not including any binary output).

Having the ability to read and modify the VM configuration manually
between the snapshot and restore phases makes debugging easier, as well
as empowers users for extending the use cases relying on the
snapshot/restore feature.

e6e58e6d66 docs: Replace Cloud-Hypervisor with Cloud Hypervisor syntax
The proper way to refer to the project is "Cloud Hypervisor" without the
hyphen in the middle. On the other hand, if one refers to the binary
name, it is "cloud-hypervisor".
