Implement a System to manage creating a Local Space

[durutheguru]

Description of the problem.
Each device (node) maintains access to one or more Spaces on the file system. The space is the source of truth and maintains the local state on the device. The space is a directory on the device that is made available to the Flow node. The Flow node then builds a living knowledge repository from the contents of the Space.

Description of the solution.
The system should be able to source events from the space folder and build a knowledge repository on the local device. The repository can be a single data source or a combination of data sources.

Checklist
[ ] Local SQLite datastore for tracking Space metadata
[ ] Space persistence on node restarts

Additional context

During our call yesterday, we discussed storage and where to store files. I recommend that we take a look at the "XDG Base Directory Specification"

We can allow the users to change some of these directories (if they know what they are doing), but following the default specification seems like a good practice.

Thanks for the suggestion @ukor i have created a new issue for migrating to XDG Base Directory Spec:
#4

will you help pick it up? 🙂

[ukor]

Sure - Storage package, right?

@ukor i'm not sure. we need to decide if we want to keep the storage package.
