[Seaside] Pier backup

[Dmitry Dorofeev]

Nice and easy, thanks.

The only question left unresolved is to how ensure that nobody
change Pier pages while I do backup. It is not quite necessary for
me personally. But would be nice to have a backup/restore functionality
embedded into Pier. That may show nice message like 'Sorry, Pier back up is action,
please wait and try to edit this page later.' to the user who updates the page.

Just an idea.
