Calling session_save_pointers() on a Collection crashes ChimeraX

Description

Trying to come to terms with how session save/restore works for Collection instances, since I have a host of classes using the same framework. Anyway, calling:

m = session.models.list()[0]
m.atoms.session_save_pointers(session)

... causes a segmentation fault. Presumably because Structure::session_save_setup() hasn't been called yet... but my grep-fu still hasn't found where it actually *does* get called. Anyway, considering that this is a public method it should probably throw an error if called outside the session-save pipeline.

Crashes *ChimeraX*. Sorry - not enough caffeine this morning. :)
