[FR] - reasumeable replaying of the blockchain

[ofirgeller]

External

Area
Other cardano-node setup

Describe the feature you'd like
the first time a node starts it takes a long time to replay the blocks and if the process is stopped in the middle you are back to 0% when you start the node again. I'm using Daedalus which depends on "cardano-node".

I understand this is a full node setup and takes a while, but supporting this future would make cardano more beginner friendly.

Describe alternatives you've considered
I can buy a curtain so the light does not bother me and leave the computer running overnight.

Additional context / screenshots
original issue: input-output-hk/daedalus#3220

Thanks!

We can reproduce the issue as reported when running for the first time. If we are stopped while running Daedalus, the replay from the disk doesn't resume and starts from 0% again. The resumable replaying feature could benefit beginners, and we can shut down the computer without worrying.
