Warn or Error on Collision? #806

Description

@emstruong

Related to #800 , when adding R-Forge (or any repo) using

pak::repo_add(RForge = "http://R-Forge.R-project.org")

Then there's a collision between the patchwork library on CRAN and the patchwork library on R-Forge -- which are two very different packages.

I suppose it's not possible to have both packages installed and loaded simultaneously?

But for the purposes of pak, perhaps it could do some kind of check of whether the two packages are different or the same? A superficial check would be for the author list...
