Add clock persistence.

Clock-related data are saved when exiting emacs ands restored when emacs
is restarted. The data saved include the contents of `org-clock-history',
and the running clock, if there is one.

To use this, you will need to add

(require 'org-clock)
(org-clock-persistence-insinuate)

to your .emacs and either add

(setq org-clock-persist t)
(setq org-clock-in-resume t)

or set those options to t in custom.

This patch requires the clock resume patch.

 	(org-clock-in): When clocking in to an entry, if
 	`org-clock-in-resume' is set, check if the first clock line is
 	open and if so, start the clock from the time in the clock line.
+	(org-clock-persist): Add a custom option to toggle clock
+	persistence.
+	(org-clock-persist-query-save): Add a custom option to toggle
+	asking the user if they want to save the running clock when
+	exiting.
+	(org-clock-persist-query-resume): Add a custom option to toggle
+	asking the user if they want to resume the saved clock when Emacs
+	is restarted.
+	(org-clock-save): Add a function to save clock data.
+	This includes the contents of `org-clock-history' and the buffer
+	and position of the currently clocked task, if any.
+	(org-clock-load): Add a function to load clock data.
+	This populates `org-clock-history', and resumes the saved clocked
+	task if there is one.
+	(org-clock-persistence-insinuate): Add a method to set up the
+	hooks for clock persistence.
