Deletes critical files without warning #711

I naively assumed that 'sync' meant that my local files would be uploaded to mega.nz. Instead, they were deleted.

Obviously the application should ask in which direction you want to sync the files and give a warning before it deletes critical files from your local folder.

MEGAsync-nemo also left junk behind after I managed to get rid of it (the folder icon is still missing from the folder used for the sync).

Even worse, it has been messing with system files which I didn't even select.
