Sometimes the dest_path in Jekyll::StaticFile#write is a directory. When this happens, FileUtils.rm(dest_path) will raise an exception.

Using FileUtils.remove_entry_secure(dest_path) instead will not raise an exception and remove (aka “unlink”) file system entries if the file dest_path points to is a directory or a non-directory file.

This is a 🐛 bug fix.

Why would a static file be a directory?
