`pb_release_create`/`pb_new_release` should warn instead of error if release already exists #95

It feels natural to have pb_release_create at the top of a script where the tag is automatically generated from something else, but the current behaviour of "abort if release already exists" discourages this usage.

I think it would be better if it returned invisible(releases[releases$tag_name == requested_tag]) along with a warning/message
