Heiko Voigt 42e8a6b4e0 mingw: make failures to unlink or move raise a question ...

On Windows in case a program is accessing a file unlink or
move operations may fail. To give the user a chance to correct
this we simply wait until the user asks us to retry or fail.

This is useful because of the following use case which seem
to happen rarely but when it does it is a mess:

After making some changes the user realizes that he was on the
incorrect branch. When trying to change the branch some file
is still in use by some other process and git stops in the
middle of changing branches. Now the user has lots of files
with changes mixed with his own. This is especially confusing
on repositories that contain lots of files.

Although the recent implementation of automatic retry makes
this scenario much more unlikely lets provide a fallback as
a last resort.
