Save DayNightCycle

[MichelleAsWell]

Description

Task: Save DayNightCycle.
Feature: SaveGame

Saving the DayNightCycle (more specifically day number and time of day) is vital to the function of SaveGame, because the time of day and day number both change the state of the game in other ways (e.g. if it is evening, monsters will spawn sooner after loading from save, and the boss spawns on day 4, so the day number will have significant impact). It is important when loading that the in-game clock syncs up with the in-game time.
Saving the daynightcycle will require significant reworking of the current service.

Just recording I had a meeting with the programmers of team 9, Ella and Chol, to talk over what functionality to be careful about when saving (and what might be causing the issue I've run into)
