(ITS#5774) Modifications not saved on file by back-ldif (on Windows)

On Windows, modifications are not saved on file by back-ldif. This is the case for example with cn=config.

Reading back-ldif code I see that when modifying an entry, back-ldif creates a temporary file containing the modified entry, and then renames the temporary file to the entry file. On Windows, renaming a file to an already existing file does not work, it gets an ERROR_ALREADY_EXISTS error (183), error code which is ignored by back-ldif.
