Better control of whether output files are overwritten #7

Add option to permit output file overwrite

The PhotoExtractor class adds a four digit numeric suffix to files names to ensure file name uniqueness and prevent files from being overwritten. This is nice to have but prevents having an option to allow output file overwrite, as it is not possible to determine whether an existing output file is from a previous run or not.
