Option to allow duplicate types in format building #106

Closed tgockel closed 6 years ago

tgockel commented 6 years ago

Currently, when a duplicate types is entered into a formats_builder, an std::invalid_argument is thrown with a message about how that type already exists. This can be inconvenient at time. There are three things that are possible:

Throw exception. The current behavior
Replace existing. Replace the adapter for the type with the new one.
Ignore duplicate. Ignore the second adapter.
