Adds a new function checking for overlapping cluster allocations.

Such overlappings are often (if not always) found by the refcount checks
as well. By increasing the refcount of the clusters affected and
therefore enforcing COW, the collision is basically fixed as well
without requiring this new function.
Thus I'm not sure whether this new function is actually necessary since
the existing refcount check seems to cover all its functionality already.
But, well, I thought it couldn't hurt proposing this function at least. ;-)
Kind regards,
Max
