Auto merge of #6798 - ehuss:install-upgrade, r=alexcrichton

Add install-upgrade.

This implements the feature described in #6667. Instead of failing when `cargo install` detects a package is already installed, it will upgrade if the versions don't match, or do nothing (exit 0) if it is considered "up-to-date".

Closes #6667.

Notes:
- This feature rejects ambiguous `--version` input (such as `1.0`). This is not required, but seemed like a reasonable time to make the change.
- There is a slight change to the output on stable which reports what was installed/replaced.
- Added better support for `*` in `--version` (don't show warning).
