make initial replication policy configurable (most_recent, all, fail)

Config:

```
- type: push
  ...
  conflict_resolution:
    initial_replication: most_recent | all | fali
```

The ``initial_replication`` option determines which snapshots zrepl
replicates if the filesystem has not been replicated before.
If ``most_recent`` (the default), the initial replication will only
transfer the most recent snapshot, while ignoring previous snapshots.
If all snapshots should be replicated, specify ``all``.
Use ``fail`` to make replication of the filesystem fail in case
there is no corresponding fileystem on the receiver.

Code-Level Changes, apart from the obvious:
- Rework IncrementalPath()'s return signature.
  Now returns an error for initial replications as well.
- Rename & rework it's consumer, resolveConflict().
