Enhancement: Prompt to overwrite previosly extracted folder rather than create folder-1 folder-2 folder-3...

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Non-saavy users often download and extract the same file multiple times, as in 
foobar-folder.zip, "foobar-folder (1).zip", "foobar-folder (2).zip"...

The problem of multiple identical downloads can be fixed by a chrome plugin 
which overwrites rather than numbering subsequent identically named downloads:

It would be nice for theunarchiver to have a similar option to overwrite a 
previously extracted foobar-folder, rather than create duplicate(s) 
"foobar-folder-1", foobar-folder-2, etc. Some sort of setting like:

If destination item already exists: (A.) prompt to overwrite. (B.) overwrite 
without warning, (C.) append a number to the destination (item-1).  Right now 
it seems C is the default behavior. I may take a look at code to see about 
adding A and B options.

The Unarchiver aims to be as streamlined as possible, so this has been 
intentionally designed this way.
