save backup copy when replacing local file with "their" version

When you choose to replace the local version of a file with "their" version, it
is simply overwritten with "their" version, and nothing of "my" version is kept,
even if I previously made changes that I didn't yet commit.

This can be a problem if someone wants to choose e. g. "solve with my version"
but happens to click on "solve with their version" by mistake. Then his version
is erased.

A good solution to this could be to make a backup copy (.orig), much the same
way a backup is made when resolving conflicts.
