* Updated conflict checking one last time. You can finally have a file move

from one package to another seemlessly (knock on wood). This is implemented
  through the use of two skip lists in the trans struct- skip_add and
  skip_remove, which replace the former trans->skiplist.
* Removed an unnecessary function parameter, added a necessary one.
* If a package has no backup files, print '(none)' under the heading so it is
  more obvious.
* Updated my TODO list.
