dispatch-conf: avoid symlink "File exists" error (535850)

Since commit f17448317166bfac42dc279b8795cd581c189582, an existing
symlink in /etc/config-archive could trigger a fatal "File exists"
error. Handle this by removing the destination file if it exists. This
was not necessary when dispatch-conf only supported regular files,
since shutil.copy2 would simply overwrite the regular destination file.

Fixes: f17448317166 ("dispatch-conf: symlink support for bug #485598")
X-Gentoo-Bug: 535850
