Michel Weststrate c43049d881 Preserve device state after disconnect ...

Summary:
This diff stack introduces support for keeping devices and clients around after they have disconnected. This is a pretty important debugging improvement, that will allow inspecting a device / app after it crashed for example.

This feature existed partially before, but only supported Android, and only support plugins with persisted state; as it replace the current device with an archived version of the same device. In practice this didn't work really well, as most plugins would not be available, and all non-persisted state would be lost.

This diff makes sure we can keep devices around after disconnecting, the next one will keep the clients around as well. And explain some code choices in more detail.

Note that `Device.isArchived` was an overloaded term before, and even more now (both representing imported and disconnected devices), will address that in a later diff.
