Feature Request: Update existing resources from bulksheet #18

Thanks for this tool. It's a big help.

This is just a step away from something very cool. Maintaining a bulk sheet for a large number of resources in Excel and using this sheet to update all of your resources in one giant batcher upload. It's a lot easier than updating each resource in Modx and allows bulk update of things like alias, content type, etc...

If the pagetitle is identical, then batcher would add/replace fields based on the bulk sheet contents. Any existing fields would be overwritten, Any new fields would be created. Currently, batcher would create a new resource of the same name I believe.

If the pagetitle does not already exist then batcher will create a new resource (like it does now).
