new tODE features available (on dev branch)

With PR #208[1] , I've expanded the support for classes with class history to include being able to identify classes that are not reachable from Smalltalk (or the user's Symbol List) ... the classes are display as ClassName{class-oop} ... I've also switched the `bu` command to produce compressed backups by default (--uncompressed will give you uncompressed bacups). I also added a `bu validate` command to verigy the readability of a backup file.

See the PR[1] for additional details.

There are a couple of minor client-side changes, you can use the `updateClient` tODE shell builtin to update the client (save the image after update finishes) and use `project load Tode` to update the server.

I suppose I should add that to the `bu` command, could you submit a feature request when you get a chance ... should probably be validated unconditionally I suppose... good idea.

Super cool! I just updated.

Question...should the "bu validate" be run automatically after making a backup? It's kind of 99% likely I will want to run a validation after making the backup, just to be sure everything went fine.

Also... do we need a menu entry for validate in the world menu?

Thanks for making compressing backups default!
