> Add the new file based I/O class {{BackupFileWriter}} with the following properties:
> - Saves the file to a temporary name
> - Creates backup of existing file on {{close()}}
> - Renames temp file to desired name on {{close()}}
> The backup strategy (number of backups, backup file name) should be pluggable.
> There should also be a hook to compare the temporary and the existing file and do the rename only when they are different. The default hook should always replace the file.
> It should also be possible to override the temporary file name (including the path, so the temp file can be in the same directory or a different one or even on a different disk).
