  undo does not work on deleted items

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: alacarte

  When you delete an item from alacarte the undo functionality does not
  work so the item is lost. This is because in deleteItem the copy for
  undoing is saved _after_ the change has been made to "delete" the item
  instead of before. James Westby noticed this and provided a simple fix
  that moves the undo checkpoint before the file modification. This is a
  very simple and obviously correct fix and I cannot see any way for it
  to cause regressions. Note that this does not fix bug 118936, that bug
  is for revert not restoring deleted items and there is no clear way to
  fix it.

  TEST CASE:
  1. Highlight an item in alacarte
  2. Press the delete key on your keyboard
  3. Press Ctrl-Z to undo the change
