FileIF.replaceReadwriteAsync

Asynchronously overwrites the file in read-write mode, replacing the contents, possibly creating a backup copy of the file first.

For more details, see g_file_replace_readwrite() which is the synchronous version of this call.

When the operation is finished, @callback will be called. You can then call g_file_replace_readwrite_finish() to get the result of the operation.
