/**
 * StateSaver can serialize a full state of a single object, including the fields of its superclass, to an object.
 * Later, this object can be used to reset the full state of the object to the old value. This is useful when doing
 * rollback in a simulation; the state of objects can be rolled back to their old values, including random number
 * generators, which will reset their seed to the old value. Be careful with objects with shared pointers to e.g.,
 * collections, as the restoreState() on a single object might lead to the duplication of the shared objects indicated
 * by these pointers. When the rollback is needed for an entire simulation, use XmlUtil, GSON, or another library to
 * serialize / deserialize an entire simulation model at once. <br>
