Comment (by nickm):

 I've started a shell script that will be useful for this, and maybe also
 for parts of #31631.

 It isn't done yet!  I've only written the script and a few example tests
 for it -- I need to write a bunch more tests before I can call this done,
 and also I need to write a changes file.  But before I more ahead, I'd
 like to know what you think of this approach.  No need to do a full review
 now: I just want to know whether you think I should proceed with this line
 of work.

 The branch is `ticket31637_wip`. PR at
 https://github.com/torproject/tor/pull/1320 .

 (WRT #31631: It tests configuration round-trips, but not state or
 sr_disk_state.)
