We need to watch out to not override any existing R file that would be owned by the user and not generated by us.

Two ideas:

Provide an opt-out mechanism for the purl-ing. Something like
```
output: 
rjournal_article: 
  purl: false
```
Use a special comment header # Do not edit as done in other tools so that we know that this is our file and we can overwrite.

@Enchufa2 I have made a PR with the second solution. If you want to try and give your thoughts you are more than welcome. Thank you!
