The importer assigned private attributes of QuestBook, Inventory and
SpellBook. Each now has a restore() method that sets its state
wholesale, and the importer uses those.
--import-save FILE adds the character in a .pqw file to the roster;
it can be given more than once, and if any file fails, nothing is
imported. --export-save NUM FILE writes a character out. Export never
overwrites an existing file. The file handling lives in pqw.read_file
and pqw.write_file, so the interfaces can share it.
A .pqw file is what Progress Quest web's roster page downloads: base64
of one character's JSON. pqcli.pqw converts between that and Player,
keeping the generator state, so a character carries on exactly as it
would have where it came from. Saves from before 2022, which were not
UTF-8, are read as Latin-1, and upstream's two spell renames are merged
the way its loader does. Online realm fields are dropped with a
warning.
The upstream tests check both directions against the real JS: a save
made by upstream, at a task boundary or mid-task, is imported and
played on for 3000 tasks next to upstream; then the same the other way.
