Public bug reported:

When an LXC/LXD container is no longer needed, it should be frozen
instead of shut down by the respective container manager.

This will make "start up" of the container much faster and will be
particularly useful for LXD containers that take a very long time to
start when fully stopped.

Also of note, memory usage will remain the same since the frozen
container will still reside in memory.  Possibly making this a
configuration option of a container will allow users who want to free
memory when a container is not needed is necessary???
