[PATCH 0/2] emacs allow save and load of the address-completions

This series adds a load/save functionality for the address
completions. This avoids the slow and poor completion provided until
the full address-hash has been generated -- this can take some time,
(over a minute on my machine), and is annoying if you frequently
restart emacs (e.g. when debugging things).

Although the patch is quite large it is relatively simple: essentially
a "print" to save, and a "read" to load. I have tried quite hard to
stop over-writing existing files, and to make sure the user does not
get surprising results if they change settings or the address
completion is upgraded in some way (e.g., we store the frequency of
each match in the map).

By default the save/load is switched off: this avoids accidental
privacy leaks, but does make it harder for users to discover.

Best wishes

Mark
