Move-SFTPItem missing a -force parameter

[ChrisRe-Lal]

Hello,

When moving an item between folder if the file name already exist in the destination we get an error.

[DBG]: PS C:\SCRIPT>> Move-SFTPItem -SessionId $SSHSesstion.SessionId -Path "./$($_.Name)" -Destination "./PDF/$($_.Name)"
Exception calling "MoveTo" with "1" argument(s): "Failed to rename file/home/abc@null.null_UUID_106_5/fakt_20231029_50014114.p.202954.pdf M: Error during remote request handle."
At C:\Program Files\WindowsPowerShell\Modules\Posh-SSH\3.1.1\Posh-SSH.psm1:1393 char:17
+                 $itemInfo.MoveTo($Destination)
+                 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    + CategoryInfo          : NotSpecified: (:) [], MethodInvocationException

Having a -Force option which would allow to automatically replace the file in the destination would be a great addition.

Sadly SSH.NET method for moving a file does not have a Overload that will allowme to force a move even if a file exists

So made it where it checks if it exists and it it does and -Fode is used it will delete then move. This will ne in the next release

Updated in release 3.2.2
