Make "git-checkout" create files with O_EXCL

We should always have unlinked any old ones before, but this just makes
sure that we never over-write any old file.

A quick "grep" now shows that all the core tools that open files for
writing use O_EXCL, ie we never overwrite an existing file in place.
