Description

The [method used](https://github.com/itinance/react-native-fs/blob/master/RNFSManager.m#L413) in the iOS native side has a "feature" where it [categorically refuses to overwrite the destination file](https://developer.apple.com/documentation/foundation/nsfilemanager/1413529-moveitematpath?language=objc). As a result, the behavior of `moveFile` in this library differs between iOS and Android.
