Warning on render animation if a rendered animation already exists.

Sometimes when going Render->Play Animation it is easy to miss or just when not paying attention to click on Render Animation instead, which causes the loss of previous rendered animation. A warning should be added to detect if animation exists and user wants to overwrite it.

This would also be fantastic to avoid accidentally replacing rendered frames. I constantly forget to change frame range before hitting render

You can simply disable the file overwrite option for that.

I don't want to do that. I want it to overwrite when I need it to. But not always, so turning it on-off is hustle and I forget it. Having a warning would save me a lot of trouble
