Atomic File Copy!

This will copy the contents of one file to another, atomically.

Under the hood, this uses std::fs::copy to copy the file to a temporary location. It then syncs the file permissions — and on Unix, the owner/group — before moving it to the final destination.

See write_file for more details about atomicity.
