+Add support for the following installpkg flags:
+
+```
+--warn (warn if files will be overwritten, but do not install)
+--md5sum (record the package's md5sum in the metadata file)
+--no-overwrite When extracting the package, do not overwrite
+ existing files. Usually, this option should not be used.
+ It exists so that upgradepkg can use it for the second
+ installation pass. The first pass has already overwritten
+ the previous package's files, and this will catch the few
+ corner cases without generating unnecessary writes.
