Description
There should be a way to easily import & export WALT OS images as archives.
Together with the disposal of an archive on the walt website, this could allow to overcome the fact one might not be able to access the docker hub on a new installation of the WALT server.
This could be used for other purposes too, such as archival, synchronizing two WALT platforms, etc.
For this case, we could also imagine to include more server data in those exports, such as some of the server configuration files perhaps ?

Research direction
Start by locating the existing WALT image handling and command entry points in the walt-python-packages repository, then trace how images are obtained from Docker Hub. Define the archive contents and import/export behavior before implementing commands; done means WALT images can be transferred as archives for offline installation, with any extra server data explicitly scoped.
