Summary: Make the bufferio operations exception-safe

Initial Comment:
jEdit has serious bugs in bufferio. If an exception is
thrown during the final stream write/read oepration,
following problems occur:
  Saving:
    The contents of the original file are lost. For
    this case, jEdit provides "two-stage save" option.
    But if the backup options are also enabled, the
    file is moved to backup. Then the original file
    seems to disappear. Also the stream is left open.
  Loading:
    The stream is left open.
This patch will fix these problems.

Here are some additional information about this patch.
Comments are welcome.

I noticed this while working to fix some looseness
about encodings. I need this to be fixed before
throwing decoding/encoding error from read/write
operations. But the problem is probably more general
one. So I made a separated patch first.

I also noticed that the auto-save operation does not
see settings such as "two-stage save". Is this
intended? I personally don't care because I don't use
the auto-save option. But if I implement strict
checking about encoding, a dangerous scenario will
come to mind.
  - Enable auto-save option.
  - Set buffer encoding to US-ASCII.
  - Type some non-ASCII char (this might be an accident)
Then, auto-saving will be fired and the contents
of the file will be lost. Should I also implement
two-stage saving and backuping into the auto-save
option before throwing decoding/encoding errors?
