Currently the Application Insights client SDK already has some great resiliency built-in, e.g. retrying to send telemetry if there are intermittent connectivity issues or service interruptions. However, there still is a risk to lose telemetry if the app crashes before sending telemetry since the telemetry queue is in-memory only. This change adds an option to persist the queue to disk via the [persist-queue](https://pypi.org/project/persist-queue/) module which will protect customers against potential data loss, at the cost of a slight loss in performance.
