Revert "Fix for ticket #1118. Create a item::save_with_retries helper

method, which encapsulates saving an item and handling name and slug
conflicts. Call this instead of doing a save directly."

Rolled this back because it fails KISS.  We already have an API for
saving models with Item_Model::save() that's consistent with all of
our other model code.  Adding a new way to save items is confusing and
inconsistent.

This reverts commit 9504f71efc.
