Don't use FileUtils.set_contents()

[Sergey "Shnatsel" Davidoff]

Do not use FileUtils.set_contents() also known as g_file_set_contents() for overwriting files, because it resets file permissions to default permissive policy and can potentially expose files that were made private. Its behavior of creating a new file and substituting the old one with it also makes the older file impossible to shred and makes automated data recovery harder on many filesystems.
GIO function document.file.replace_contents() should be used instead.

See http://valadoc.org/#!api=gio-2.0/GLib.File.replace_contents for documentation. There's also replace_contents_async() which can be useful.
An example of transitioning code to that function can be found in http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~elementary-apps/scratch/scratch/revision/782 in Tab.Vala

I'm marking all projects in which I've grepped either form of this function as affected.
