du: don't abort when a subdir is renamed during traversal
* NEWS (Bug fixes): Mention it.
* src/du.c (prev_level): Move declaration "up" to file-scope global.
(du_files): Reset prev_level to 0 upon abnormal fts_read termination.
Reported by Johathan Nieder in http://bugs.debian.org/609049
Also, improve a diagnostic.
