Details:

If denemo crashes, there is no mechanism to offer the autosave file as a
rescue. (At one time an attempt was made to write out the Denemo.project
structure in the segfault handler, but as this could itself crash that was
abandoned). Normal would be to write a lock file to .denemo-xxx which is
removed on clean exit and to offer to load autosave.denemo if it is present at
startup. Such code needs to handle multiple invocations of Denemo (which is
something that does not need to be allowed).
