force overwrite in completions



Hi,

I'm using zsh on a system which shares $HOME between two separate servers and 
when using both at the same time, switching to root at these (and so on) I 
sometimes get a question from mv asking me if I want to overwrite a file over 
and over.

This patch just forces such overwrite.
