Summary: CopyFiles obeying SetOverwrite function

Initial Comment:
It would be a nice enhancement if the CopyFiles
function would look at the Overwrite mode just like the
File command does.  

Examples of where this would be useful:
1.  Our company distributes software on a CD.  All
files are in a directory, uncompressed, with the idea
that if a file becomes corrupt on a client's PC, they
can simply copy and paste the affected file. 
Therefore, by NOT having the files compressed into the
setup.exe makes sense in this case.

2.  Another example would be you had an installation
that was part of a multi-disk set.  You'd probably
extact some files to a temp folder and then copy them
in place.
