[Ohrrpgce] wip r13906: Add a saveitemdata overload that converts ItemDef back into ITM formatted itembuf()

[Ralph Versteegen]

It'll be great to have ITM replaced. I know I've been talking about this
for more than a decade, but I still like the idea of an item having
multiple equipment records, so that it can have different stats in
different equip slots, or when equipped by different heroes, or dependent
on tags, so just wanted to suggest designing the reload format around that
kind of future extension.
