/*! \brief The AutostartEntry class provides an interface for staging configuration of individual
autostart items. All changes are made in memory until commit() is called.

 - "system" file refers to a read-only file in /etc/xdg/autostart (or a directory in $XDG_CONFIG_DIRS)
 - "local" file refers to the file in user's ~/.config/autostart (or in $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/autostart)

When a "local" file has the same name as the "system" file, the local one overrides it. This class
tries to ensure that the "local" file is deleted if it's identical to the "system" file.
