NIO2's Path.moveTo(...) needs renameTo(...) aequivalent, or at least javadoc clarification.

I'd suggest bringing this up on the nio-dev as there was a recent 
discussion on this. In summary source.moveTo(target) will always attempt 
a rename by default but it isn't clear from the javadoc (and that will 
be fixed). See also http://bugs.sun.com/view_bug.do?bug_id=6878283 where 
that discussion was looking for another option that will prevent moveTo 
moving the file across file systems/volumes.
