QFSFileEngine: make rename() on Unix not overwrite
The rename(2) system call overwrites, so instead of using it, we try to
use the link/unlink pair. This works for regular cases, but can fail if
trying to change case in case-insensitive filesystems, if we're
operating on a non-Unix filesystem (FAT) or, on Linux, if the file
doesn't belong to the calling user (BSDs permit this). For those cases,
we fall back to rename(2).
That means there's a race condition if a new file is created there. But
we at least reduce the likelihood of that happening for regular files.
