unpack_trees: group error messages by type
When an error is encountered, it calls add_rejected_file() which either - directly displays the error message and stops if in plumbing mode (i.e. if show_all_errors is not initialized at 1) - or stores it so that it will be displayed at the end with display_error_msgs(), Storing the files by error type permits to have a list of files for which there is the same error instead of having a serie of almost identical errors. As each bind_overlap error combines a file and an old file, a list cannot be done, therefore, theses errors are not stored but directly displayed.
