Subject: [PATCH 3/6][lxc][v3] lxc_checkpoint: Add --statefile option

The existing --directory option to lxc_checkpoint expects to save the
checkpoint state in a directory. USERCR however uses a single regular
file to store the checkpoint image. So add a --statefile option to enable
checkpointing and restarting applications using USERCR.

Users should specify either --statefile or --directory option (but not both)
to select the file/directory where the application state will be stored.
