should check first and warn user

I have lost count of the number of times I have attempted to export Writer
files as PDFs—only to see the message, "Error saving the document." The reason
for this is very simple: a pdf of the same name is already open. It is a very
easy trap to fall into repeatedly—no matter how experienced.
SUGGESTION: Before going ahead with the PDF export operation, LibreOffice
should check whether a PDF document of the same name is OPEN at that location
and, if so, warn the user to close it first.
