           Summary: warn if <delete task contains a fileset AND a dir

I had a simple delete task
<delete dir="${build.dir}" includeEmptyDirs="true" />
and wanted to exclude something
  excludes="**/transform/**/*.* ${ASM_jar}"
Doing that I got the DEPRECATED error and added
  <fileset dir="${build.dir}">
    <exclude name="**/transform/*.class" />
    <include name="**/*.*" />
  </fileset>
resulting in
<delete dir="${build.dir}" includeEmptyDirs="true">
  <fileset dir="${build.dir}">
    <exclude name="**/transform/*.class" />
    <include name="**/*.*" />
  </fileset>
</delete>

BUILD FAILED
file:build.xml:667: WEB-INF/classes not found.

The exclude statement came too late and all its contents were already gone!

Suggested resolution:
if a nested fileset is present, warn about deleting what is specified in "dir"
