core: do not accept multiple definitions of a package
One of the selling points for br2-external is to provide a mean to add new packages. However, it is not supported that a package be defined by Buildroot and then redefined in a br2-external tree. This situation may occur without the user noticing or even willing to redefine the package, for example: - br2-external is first created against a version of Buildroot - a package (missing in Buildroot) is added to that br2-external tree - upstream Buildroot adds this package - user updates to the new Buildroot In this case, the result in undefined, and we can't make any guarantee on the result (working or not). Add a sanity check so that a package redefinition gets caught. Signed-off-by: "Yann E.
