patch to allow native file move in overwrite with user confirmation

Latest version of the patch.

The patch contains two commits as before, with the first containing a few new
lines to prevent memory leaks. The second commit, like the previous version,
allows the use of native operations when overwriting a file by retrying (after
asking for user confirmation) with the G_FILE_COPY_OVERWRITE flag added if the
first g_file_move fails with error G_IO_ERROR_EXISTS. This version differs from
the previous one in that it adds an extra member to ThunarTransferNode to
record whether the user has confirmed file replacement (to prevent the user
being asked twice), and also in that it only invokes thunar's fallback
copy+delete for a small set of possible G_IO_ERROR_* errors where it makes
sense to do so (taking the behaviour of nautilus as a guide).

Criticisms and suggestions for improvement are welcome!
