Summary:
Addons cannot be upgraded through the UI
Detailed description
If you try to overwrite an already-installed addon, Blender errors ("File already installed to ..."). This prevents users from upgrading their addons through the UI.
Ideally Blender should examine bl_addon_info['version'] and warn if the user is downgrading, but otherwise overwrite.

added option to overwrite r34598.
version number extraction is simple for single scripts but not for zipfiles.
