Make file operations atomic #57

Open
@wisp3rwind

Description

As discussed in beetbox/beets#3849 and beetbox/beets#4060, we would like most/all of beets file operations to be atomic. This requires support by mediafile, which in turn either requires that we shuffle around temporary files, or someone invests the time to implement this in mutagen directly, see quodlibet/mutagen#241. Ideally, on CoW file systems, this should use reflinks.
