alternate distribution of blockchain state

@speedmax and I were talking and what are the ideas that we had upon which I think would be very beneficial to the project overall is the creation of pre-synced Docker images.

The goal here is just to reduce the amount of time that it takes for a developer to actually begin work.

My planned technique for creating these is:

• Run a node with systemd
• get it synced
• stop the node once a week
• Create a docker image that uses COPY to move the chain state into the image

I'd like to do this for both testnet and mainnet and am mainly looking for feedback on implementation.

Monthly archive of chain data folder would be sufficient.

Yes that would be sufficient, however it's quite simple to automate things with Docker and so I figured why not do it daily and push that to Docker hub daily/weekly. "No touch".

Archive of the chain folder data still requires configuration, goal here is zeroconf.
