Subject: Added api for getting/setting the kv_cache (#685)

The api provides access methods for retrieving the current memory buffer for the kv_cache and its token number.
It also contains a method for setting the kv_cache from a memory buffer.

This makes it possible to load/save history - maybe support --cache-prompt paramater as well?
