changed save point file format to .teco-<n>-<filename>~
* It is no longer possible to accidentally open save point files
of the same or another SciTECO instance when typing something like
EB*.cpp$
* The use of a trailing ~ is common among editors. These files
will be recognized more easily as temporary by users.
* People will often already have VCS ignore rules for files with
trailing tilde. Therefore SciTECO savepoints will often be
already ignored by VCS.
* Since they still have a unique ".teco" prefix, they will not
be confused by other programs as backup files.
* Also mention in sciteco(1) that save point files are hidden on
Windows.
