Summary: Atomic config file update

Initial Comment:
When you run most grabbers with --configure and abort
halfway through, the old config is lost and an empty
file is written (which then causes the grabber to give
an error when next run).  It would be better to delay
writing the new config file till the end.  This could
be done quite easily with IO::AtomicFile.
