Support serializing and deserializing recommenders

[ghost]

(originally reported in Trac by @elehack on 2011-03-16 22:26:52)

We want to be able to serialize and deserialize recommenders (or their models) so that a recommender can be built and then used by a different process.

It would also be interesting to explore alternative models (e.g. memory-mapped similarity matrices).

I'm marking this as closed because serialization works with the default object serialization in Java. Although the interface might change or expand, these issues can be new tickets.

This feature will be affected by the outcome of #56 but it looks like the new Recommender type can be serialized completely. So any server only needs to worry about how to deserialize the recommender and does not need to care about the build configuration.
