    Allow catalog item to be force-updated via query string flag on the REST API

    # Issue
    
    When `POST`ing a catalog item (YAML file) with an ID and version to already 
exist, the REST API returns a `400` with a message inviting the user to use a 
`forceUpdate` flag if one wishes to. However, this flag is only available 
internally and not exposed to the REST API.
    
    Another issue is that under the same condition for ZIP/JAR archives, the 
`OsgiArchiveInstaller` silently ignores the update and therefore, the REST API 
returns a `201` even though it has done anything.
    
    # Fix
    
    This fixes both above issues by:
    - exposing a `forceUpdate` flag on the REST API for `/v1/catalog`
    - checking the result code from `OsgiArchiveInstaller.install()` method and 
throw the same error message inviting the user to use the flag
