npm install --save hoodie: do not overide "start" script in package.json

See original GitHub issue

when installing hoodie, it runs a setup in postinstall. Among other things, it sets the “start” script (via https://github.com/hoodiehq/hoodie/pull/592)

But if the “start” script is already set, it currently gets overwritten, which it shouldn’t do

Sure, give it a try! The relevant line is this one: https://github.com/hoodiehq/hoodie/blob/8fa80e1b1ac192c18766b2d8e189529f8c003029/bin/setup.js#L18: Instead of simply setting packageJson.scripts[ 'start' ] we should check if packageJson.scripts[ 'start' ] is already set. If it is

do not set it to 'hoodie' and and add a log.info('setup', 'start script already set to "' + packageJson.scripts[ 'start' ] + ', you can start hoodie with "npm run start-hoodie" instead
set packageJson.scripts[ 'start-hoodie'] to hoodie instead.

Makes sense?
