save_scene()

Save the Harmony scene safely.

The built-in (to AYON) background zip and moving of the Harmony scene folder, interferes with server/client communication by sending two requests at the same time. This only happens when sending "scene.saveAll()". This method prevents this double request and safely saves the scene.
