don't overwrite files without warning

This patch is an attempt to provide a solution to the problem
of accidentally overwriting an original image:
- Save as: if a file with the given name already exists, 
  a box is shown, asking whether the file should be overwritten.
  (By a small re-ordering in the code, this
   is also done, when the filename given in the SaveAs dialog
   equals the original filename)
- Save: always leads to a box, asking whether
  the file should be overwritten, or the save should be canceled.

  Note, that no "Don't ask this question again"
  is implemented in this patch. 
  (Fiddling around  with adding new configuration variables
   is beyond my present understanding
   of the digikam code ;-)

Also, more involved solutions of versioning are not dealt with this
patch. It just ensures that one should never accidentally
overwrite an original image.
